Problem statement
- No objective control of metal purging with argon
Solution
Monitors and controls:
- metal purging with argon
- free board of the ladle
- technical condition of the ladle cover
- alloying and slag forming materials get into the ladle
- electrodynamic modes of work of electric arc unit
