Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-004235
A type of electric arc furnace characterized by a rotating hearth, primarily used for melting and refining steel or other metals. The rotation of the hearth promotes uniform heating of the charge and improves slag-metal reactions, leading to better metallurgical control and efficiency. This furnace design is often used in specialized steel production for high-quality alloys.
