Resumo
DIAMOLD, a revolutionary development in the field of High Speed Billet Casting Technology, has been developed and implemented by VAI POMINI - the long products company of the VAI-group - in 1995 to the market. Two years later the DYNAFLEX Hydraulic Oscillation Technology, which enables highest precision in Mold Oscillation, was put in industrial operation in a Billet Casting Machine, the first time. Since the initial steps in both technologies, VAI Pomini has equipped and/or upgraded meanwhile 50 Billet Casters respectively more than 200 Strands with DIAMOLD technology and close to 40 Billet / Bloom Casters respectively more than 160 Strands with DYNAFLEX technology. About 60 Strands were installed in Slab Casters. Especially in the recent years the number of references grew up progressively and several companies or groups of companies not only equipped just one machine, but have equipped subsequently two or more casters with VAI Pomini’s technological packages, after they realized the overall benefits of these technologies. Both technologies are nowadays installed in open stream operated casters for Plain Carbon Steel grades as well as in High Quality Steel, Special Steel and Stainless Steel Casters which of course are operated in fully shrouded casting mode. The current paper will show the benefits of both technologies in single and combined application on behalf of some successful references and will illustrate the development of references with particular view on satisfied clients in selected markets.
