Description

Technical Field

[0002] As a conductor that releases electric energy for heating by electric arc, graphite electrode is often used as a binder in industry, and petroleum coke and needle coke are used as the main raw materials. It is made through burning and pressing, batching and roasting, kneading, graphitization and machining. It has the advantages of fast processing speed, good machinability, light weight and good thermal stability. In the impregnation process of graphite electrode processing, it is necessary to go through the steps of roasting the blank, surface cleaning, preheating and loading into the impregnation tank. When preheating the graphite electrode, due to the high internal temperature of the preheating equipment, the preheating equipment will exchange heat with the external environment, resulting in a substantial increase in the ambient temperature around the preheating bin. Due to the large external environment space and the fast air flow, heat loss occurs. At the same time, when the current graphite electrode is preheated, the surface temperature is at room temperature, resulting in low preheating efficiency. Utility Model Content
