Practical Exploration of Replacing Steel Molds with Copper Molds to Cast Anode Plates
In the initial stage of trial production of crude copper refining at Houma North Copper Company,due to the lack of conditions for copper mold casting,it was not possible to produce copper molds on its own,and steel mold casting was needed for transition.However,steel molds need to be outsourced for production,with uncontrollable and unstable quality specifications.The size deviation of the cast anode plate is large,and the procurement cycle of steel molds is long.It is difficult to replace waste molds in a timely manner,which affects the casting quality.In addition,waste steel molds cannot be recycled and reused,resulting in high manufacturing costs.By drawing on advanced production practices in the same industry and considering the factors that affect the casting of anode plates in copper molds,improvement measures have been identified to replace steel molds with copper molds for casting anode plates.The installation of the mother mold and the operating procedures for casting anode plates in copper molds have also been optimized.
