In cooperation with North Star BlueScope Steel, Vesuvius will present a paper at AISTech about a successful automatic mold level control upgrade project.
When: Tuesday May 6, at 4:00 pm
Where: AISTech2014 I&S Technology Conference in Indianapolis, IN, USA
Title:
Successes and Challenges of Upgrading a Complete Mold Level Control System
at North Star BlueScope Steel
Authors:
Glen Meiring, North Star BlueScope Steel; Craig Hawkins, North Star BlueScope Steel;
Patrick Arnulf, Vesuvius USA; Xavier Rabec, Vesuvius USA
Abstract:
This paper describes an automatic mold level control upgrade project at NorthStar Bluescope Steel. The project presented unique challenges due to the original equipment setup, as well as the incremental caster upgrades over the years, which led to a situation in which equipment had to perform at a high level in a single-caster plant context. The paper describes the background of the project, the project itself, as well as its implementation and commissioning. A special emphasis is placed on the initial challenges of the project, as well as how initially unforeseen issues were overcome.

GIFA2015 closed its doors. Biggest ever GIFA for FOSECO. June 2015 saw Foseco have its biggest ever stand at GIFA, the world’s largest foundry trade fair held in Düsseldorf Germany. With a total floor space of 1200 m2, the stand was divided into 3 zones featuring the latest advances in foundry process technologies for iron, steel and aluminium foundries. Representatives from 28 countries were in attendance generating a record number of customer enquiries, and hits on the special GIFA web site exceeded all expectations.
Under the slogan of “The Plus for Your Business”, the 45 exhibits and 55 case studies presented demonstrated how advances in product and application technology from Foseco enable foundries to meet and exceed the ever-increasing demands for quality and consistency from their customers.
Specific highlights included:
· STELEX ZR ULTRA and SEDEX ULTRA high porosity framed filters delivering enhanced inclusion removal at higher flow rates in iron and steel applications;
. The application of FEEDEX and KALMINEX sleeves to DISAMATIC moulding lines, facilitating significant increases in casting yield;. Methoding solutions for compact graphite iron applications;
· The latest advances in the INITEK process for the production of ductile iron, incorporating temperature control, MSI +DC dynamic inoculation and ITACA thermal analysis;
· Coating density control in high production automotive iron foundry applications;
· SOLOSIL TX inorganic core binders for aluminium foundries;
· SMARTT degassing technology for the optimisation of the degassing and metal treatment of aluminium melts;
· INSURAL insulating dosing furnace and transport ladle linings for aluminium foundries.
22 new technical papers were published to support the show and technical presentations on STELEX ULTRAadvanced steel filters and SOLOSIL TX inorganic binders were given at the Technical Forum.
In addition, four live shows were presented featuring:
· Integrated product and technology solutions at Nissan, Spain
. Enhanced process control in the iron melt shop
· SOLOSIL TX inorganic binders
· SMARTT – innovative process control for rotary degassing
Glenn Cowie, Business President of Foseco, commented: “The record levels of visitors and enquiries reflects our customer’s ongoing need to drive innovation, quality, productivity and process control in their casting operations. The live shows were especially well received and clearly demonstrated the importance of application expertise and customer process understanding in maximising the value generated for our customers from the products and services we provide.”

Lyon is renowned all over the world for its Festival of Lights hold in December.
This year, however, due to the recent and tragic events in Paris, the celebration could not take place the usual way and the City of Lyon decided to move the program up to December 2016.
Instead, Lyon people were invited to stand united and solidary, lighting up candles on their window sills and balconies to illuminate the city on December 8, in a tribute to the victims of the terrorist attacks in Paris last November.
In addition, the Saône quays and Fourvière hill presented the artwork by Daniel Knipper entitled 'Regards'.
This fresco, composed of close-ups on the eyes of figures from master paintings, also paid homage to the victims of the terrorist attacks by scrolling their names across the buildings along the quays.
.
Once again, SERT METAL staff has participated in the yearly Challenge set by regional authorities: 5ème Challenge Mobilité Rhône-Alpes : "Au travail, j'y vais autrement". It consists in motivating as many people as possible to go to work by any means BUT car in solo. Most participants choose biking, but other ways are also valued, like car-sharing, public transportation, roller‑skating or simply walking, for those who are lucky enough to live close to their work.
The purpose is to raise awareness, and make everybody try to change their transportation habits, thinking about the environmental consequences of the choices they make.
The event took place on a sunny Thursday, June 4, 2015.
SERT METAL staff successfully played the game,
with about half the team leaving their car in the garage.

SERT METAL team wishes you all the best for 2015 !
Here in Lyon, December traditionally begins with the Festival of Lights
and we are pleased to share some pictures with you
shot during the latest edition, which took place from Dec.5 thru Dec.8, 2014.
Every year, for several nights, different artists light up buildings, streets, squares and parks all over the city. Millions of visitors from all over France and from abroad brave the cold to go out and enjoy the friendly and joyful spirit of this unique event.
