System to significantly increase the effective yield of Calcium (and other alloying elements) in the treatment of specialty steels, while reducing impurities in the melt

Objective

Hotwire aims to develop a new, specially coated feed wire and dispensing system that is able to delay initial Ca core exposure from current duration of only 1.5 seconds to ~5 seconds, extend the Ca melt time (once exposed) from <1 second to ~3 seconds, through the application of thin, nano-particle enhanced heat resistant/intumescent coatings. To further increase the yield of the Calcium by enabling a wider dispersion area in the ladle by developing a novel, articulating feed head to allow wire feed across the entire ladle cross-section.
