System for Early Slag Detection in the Process of Steel Pouring from Steel Ladle into Tundish «Vibration Slag Detection System for Ladle (VSDL)»
Vibration Slag Detection System for Ladle (VDSL) is designed for automatic detection of slag penetration into liquid steel jet while pouring form Steel Ladle to Tundish. Upon detection of slag the system generates sound alarm to the operator and/or signal to operate the slide gate of the ladle.

Ladle Slag Detection
The EMLI III Ladle slag detection system utilizes advanced electronics and specially designed sensors to identify slag presence in the ladle’s well-block area.
The sensors’ unique design and strategic placement enable the EMLI system to produce a dependable and precise slag alarm well before a human operator can detect it.
This technology allows users to optimize yield while significantly reducing slag carryover.

Clean Steel with Thermographic Slag Detection TSD 2.0
The ever-increasing demands on the degree of steel purity require the slag-free transfer of liquid steel from the oxygen steel converter or electric furnace into the ladle. A prerequisite for this demand is that entrainment of slag into the liquid steel can be detected. AMEPA’s latest slag detection system now detects slag flow into the steel on a thermographic basis.

Clean Steel with Electromagnetic Slag Detection ESD 300 and ESD 400
Slag-free transfer of molten steel is critical for prime or scrap and critical for profit or loss in producing high-quality steels. Regardless of whether it is for furnaces, ladles, or distributors: Large quantities of slag must never be transferred to the next vessel.
The ESD Electromagnetic Slag Detection, positioned at the ladle bottom, sounds an alarm as soon as slag flows through and sends a signal to automatically close the slide-gate.

INSTALLATION OF THREE CASTRIP LINES IN ONE YEAR ALLOWS SHAGANG GROUP TO PRODUCE GREEN ULTRA-THIN STRIP
Ultra-compact and energy-effective Castrip plants were first installed in the U.S.A. and Mexico. In 2018, Shagang Group introduced Castrip technology to China at its plant in Zhangjiagang, Jiangsu Province. Since then, Shagang Group has invested in three further Castrip lines. These new lines were implemented in just 12 months, with the latest becoming operational in June 2024.
