Bulk addition machine

• Automated bulk addition machine, for addition of alloying element or treatment alloys into the ladle.
• The added alloys can be Carbon, FeSi alloys, Copper, Inoculant, Nodularizante, etc.

The BulkMaster machine can be used together with the WireMaster in order to implement a “ladle metallurgy” process strategy, where the alloysing of the melt and the nodularization treatment are performed in one step.

The BulkMaster is directly controlled by the Navigator software.

WireMaster and Bulkmaster combination

• Combines bulk additions and wire treatment of inoculant and magnesium wire in one
• Coil racks for quick and easy storage to guarantee a continuous wire supply
• Easy production of multiple iron grades
