HERZOG automated slag preparation system

In an automated steel laboratory, the slag arrives in a pneumatic carrier. In the HRES unpacking station, the slag is transferred fully automatically into a sample cup. The cup can be fed directly by the robot into the automated slag preparation system. In larger systems like this one, the slag is usually transported to the slag automation system by means of a sky conveyor belt. The cup is lowered back to floor level by a lift and subsequently forwarded to the slag automation consisting of the HPCA crusher, HPMA mill with magnetic separator, and HPPA press. The press pellet is fully automatically produced and then transferred to the XRF analyzer.
