Thermal lances as the best option for cutting waste materials

We know that steel is 100% recyclable and that this does not affect its quality; therefore, scrap treatment is one of the most cost-effective and time-consuming processes that its manufacturers should take into account.

So why are thermal lances a good choice for cutting large waste materials?

We explain it to you, for recycled steels to be sent to the electric furnace it first has to go through:

1. Classification according to weight, length.

2. Classification according to ferrous or non-ferrous.

3. Cutting.

4. Remelt.

The most complicated and strenuous part is cutting; however, using oxygen cutting is a quick solution compared to using machines or other equipment.

Finally, why do we say that thermal lances are the best option?

1. Easy ignition: An acetylene torch can be used to heat one end of the lance and then inject oxygen. Se puede usar un soplete de acetileno para calentar un extremo de l lanza para luego inyectar oxígeno.

2. Powerful and fast metal cutting: Filled with wires, it produces a temperature of up to 4000°C.

3. User-friendly operation: It uses auxiliary equipment such as; lance holder, air valve, safety tools, hose, cylinder and oxygen regulator.

4. Diversity of dimensions: Cosandes offers you a wide variety of diameters/dimensions according to the scrap to be cut.
