Last July, at ALFRAN’s facilities in Seville, under the umbrella of our ALFRAN TECHNICAL INSTITUTE© (ATI), 2 training courses were carried out, Robotic demolition and installation of castable by Shotcrete system, strategic activities of our business. In addition, in September, a week of theoretical and practical training for operation technicians focused on the different refractory installation systems, passive protection, heat treatments and quality assurance procedures.
Many thanks to all the participants and to all the team that made these events possible.
At alfran® we design, manufacture, and install monolithic precast shapes in all grades of castable from our wide range of products, supplied ready to use with controlled drying heat treatment. We have a unique technology that allows us to adapt delivery times to meet the needs of our customers.
Our Research Development & Innovation (R&D+i) has designed two excellent alternatives for Nose Ring applications:
1) Shaped products made in metallic-ceramic material designed for high mechanical and thermal performance, STEEL-TECH, ready for installation to increase the life of the refractory at “critical” areas when compared with the traditional ones;
2) Precast pieces made with our ALFRAN ABR CLEAN + refractory castable, a material with silicon carbide and micronized zirconium silicate.
This combination of raw materials has excellent performance against hot abrasion, chemical attack, and high refractoriness, at “critical” areas and at a competitive price.
Both solutions can be used at Nose Ring areas in different industries with rotary kilns, like Cement, Paper & Pulp, Vanadium, Pigments, etc…
