Vacuum Induction Degassing (VID)
Vacuum Induction Degassing (VID)
The document discusses the Vacuum Induction Degassing (VID) furnace, designed for the ferrous and non-ferrous metals industry, handling charge weights up to 30 tons. It is particularly beneficial for smaller steel shops and foundries to produce high-quality vacuum-treated steels economically.
Specifications
The VID system is vacuum-tight and tiltable, allowing for melting under vacuum, precise temperature adjustment, and processes like decarburization, desulphurization, and deoxidation. It supports alloying and pouring, with options for pouring at air (VID), under protective gas (VID-Pro), or with oxygen blowing (VID-Oxy).
Procedures
All secondary metallurgy treatment steps are integrated into one unit, including melting, refining, and casting. The VID-Pro variant allows pouring under inert gas, minimizing gas pick-up. The VID-Oxy variant is optimized for high-chromium steel production using low-cost materials and includes oxygen blowing for carbon removal.
System Configurations
The document outlines typical system configurations, including space requirements and technical data for different VID models (400, 1000, 2000, 3000). Key parameters include crucible size, cycle times, operating pressure, electrical layout, cooling water consumption, and recommended crane capacity.
Applications
VID systems are suitable for producing low and high carbon steels, tool and die steels, stainless steels, Fe-Ni alloys, superalloys, and non-ferrous alloys. They are effective in hydrogen and nitrogen removal, decarburization, and inclusion removal.
Contact Information
The document provides contact details for ALD Vacuum Technologies GmbH and its international offices in Great Britain, Russia, China, the Far East, and the USA/Canada.
