Abstract

PARE has developed an electrode wear monitoring system. They have implemented such systems at the three electric arc furnaces (two DC, one AC) located in Luxembourg. The goal of these systems is twofold: first it allows the steelmaker to continuously monitor its graphite consumption and relate it to the furnace operating conditions; second it allows a feedback to the electrode suppliers for quality monitoring.
