APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TAPPING MELTS IN PLASMA TORCH MELTER

摘要

PURPOSE: A device and a method for tapping melts in a plasma torch melting furnace are provided to remove melts existing in a tap hole by installing tapping induction electrode on a transfer device with a remote controlling device. CONSTITUTION: A device for tapping melts in a plasma torch melting furnace comprises a tapping induction electrode(10), a controller, and a transfer device(120). The tapping induction electrode is parallel-connected with a main electrode(31). The tapping induction electrode heats and fuses melts remaining in a tap hole(12). The controller secludes the conduction between the anode of the plasma torch and the main electrode. The controller connects the conduction between the anode of the plasma torch and a tapping induction electrode. The transfer device transfers the tapping induction electrode along the tap hole and controls the proximity distance with melts.
