New Application Note:
Radar Level Measurement for Molten Pig Iron in Torpedo Cars at Blast Furnace Casting Floors

Dear Valued Partners and Customers,

We are pleased to announce that a new application article has been published on our website:

“Radar Level Measurement of Molten Pig Iron in Torpedo Cars at Blast Furnace Casting Floors.”

In steel plants, molten pig iron produced in blast furnaces is transported to the next process using torpedo cars. During the pouring process, it is essential to monitor the level accurately in order to prevent overflow and ensure safe operation.

However, level measurement at blast furnace casting floors is extremely challenging due to harsh environmental conditions such as high ambient temperatures, intense radiant heat from molten metal, and limited installation space.

This article introduces how Matsushima Measure Tech’s radar level transmitter provides a reliable non-contact solution for continuous monitoring of molten pig iron levels under these severe conditions.

Radar technology enables accurate measurement by transmitting microwave signals toward the molten metal surface and receiving the reflected signals, allowing stable level monitoring even in harsh steel plant environments.
