Final Acceptance for Graphite Extrusion Press at Graftech Ibérica, Spain

35-MN system produces electrodes with enhanced cycle time


Recently Danieli Breda performed the Final Acceptance Tests (FAC) on the new graphite extrusion technology supplied to Graftech Ibérica SL, Navarre, Spain, for the production of the graphite electrodes.

Danieli Bredas’ 35-MN Graphite Extrusion Press, equipped with a tilting container, allows vertical charging of the graphite paste, which notably enhances the press performance in terms dead-cycle time reduction and a consequent increase in productivity.

During the test the press was switched to fully automatic mode and met all contractual technical and performance figures.
