| Surface Treatment by WeldingSurfacing using the ELECTROSLAG process.
Strip plating using the electroslag technique is different from the submerged arc procedure. Indeed, the energy required to melt the strip, the base metal, and the flux is provided as a result of a joule effect.
There is no electric arc in the electroslag plating technique. The bonded flux is only supplied on one side. The resulting molten bath (molten strip, base metal and flux) is conductive. It is possible to change the size of the deposit using two magnetic rods inserted into each side of the molten bath.
The deposit rate is higher than that of the submerged arc (22 kg/h).
The two previous characteristics allow to obtain the chemical balance required with one or two layers, through exceptional stability and regularity of operation.
