Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a robot, and in particular to a slag skimming robot. Background Art

[0002] The hot metal in the ladle carries a large amount of slag, which will have an adverse impact on the converter smelting. Therefore, hot metal slag skimming is an important process before the converter. Slag skimming is an operation that removes impurities floating on the surface of the hot metal by utilizing the different densities of slag and iron to improve the purity of the hot metal. Due to the extremely high temperature of the hot metal, manual slag skimming requires careful operation. And if there is a slight mistake in the operation, the slag and iron will scatter, resulting in serious injuries to personnel. In addition, hot metal consumption is an important indicator of the slag skimming process. Hot metal consumption refers to the amount of hot metal carried out by slag skimming. Controlling the amount of hot metal carried out during slag skimming takes a lot of time and reduces the slag skimming efficiency. Currently, there is no hot metal slag skimming robot to replace manual labor. Summary of the Invention
