Agellis receives an order for 120 KEuro from a South American steel plant

AGELLIS Group, which develops and sells products and solutions to the global metals industry, has received an order totaling 120 KEuro for a measurement system from a South American steel plant.

The order, which consists of one system for slag indication in ladles (EMLI-SIL), is expected to be delivered during the first quarter of 2013 and installed during the second quarter of 2013.

To achieve high quality steel production it is important that ladle slag does not enter the tundish during teeming. The Agellis EMLI-SIL indicates when slag appears in the steel stream and the plant can then stop teeming from the ladle.

"This customer has been using an earlier version of the EMLI-SIL system for many years at another plant and it’s a good sign of our product reliability that they choose to use our latest slag detection system in their new plant.” says Patrik Bloemer, CEO of Agellis.

For competitive reasons, Agellis chooses not to mention the end user plant by name.

All Agellis products are based on a common platform, namely the EMLI system electronics. The EMLI-SIL (Slag Indication Ladle) indicates with a high accuracy when slag appears in the steel stream. The sensor is very close to the steel and must therefore meet very high survival and environmental standards. Accurate slag detection in the steel stream is a prerequisite for a smooth, high quality steel production.
