Abstract

The Gimbal Top distribution system for blast furnaces was introducedin October 2006. With this solution any burden profile can begenerated by directing the feed material to any point on the furnacestock line. This is made possible by innovative design features whichallow the chute angle and position to be continuously adjustedduring material discharging. The described Gimbal Top Distributor isfit for the high-temperature and high-pressure environment of ironmakingplants.
