The CAMSIZER P4 dynamic image analyzer is designed to determine particle size and shape within a spectrum of 20 µm to 30 mm, making it ideal for routine ferrosilicon analysis. The particles are transported via a vibratory chute into a measurement zone, where they fall freely past a planar light source. The resulting shadow projections are then captured by a camera system and analyzed in real time. The CAMSIZER P4 is distinguished by its unique Dual-Camera Technology; one camera (ZOOM) accurately detects fine particles, whereas the second camera (BASIC), with a wider field of view, identifies larger particles simultaneously. This capability enables the CAMSIZER P4 to analyze all particles within a single sample without requiring hardware adjustments, maintaining accuracy for both larger and finer particles. The two-camera system creates optimal measurement conditions across the entire particle size range, resulting in highly precise and convenient analysis.

The outstanding feature of this setup is its ability to process a substantial amount of sample data in a notably short analysis time of just a few minutes. The CAMSIZER P4 is maintenance-free and offers a quicker and more reliable alternative to traditional sieve analysis methods. Its robust design makes it resilient against vibrations and dust, allowing it to function effectively in both industrial and laboratory settings.

Ferrosilicon is an alloy composed of iron and silicon. It is typically produced by smelting coke, steel chips, and quartz (or silica) in an electric furnace. Its common applications include:

(1) Acting as a crucial deoxidizer in the steelmaking industry. In steel production, ferrosilicon is utilized for both precipitation and diffusion deoxidation. It also serves as an alloying agent in the steelmaking process.

CHIDA products are delivered globally with a focus on quality. We strive to provide our customers with innovative, high-value products to foster a sustainable future together.

(2) Used as an inoculant and spheroidizer in the cast iron industry. Ferrosilicon plays a significant role as an inoculant, promoting graphite precipitation in ductile iron production, as well as serving as a spheroidizer.

(3) Serving as a reducing agent in ferroalloy production. Due to the strong chemical affinity between silicon and oxygen, along with a low carbon content, high-silicon ferrosilicon or siliceous alloys are favored reducing agents in the production of low-carbon ferroalloys within the ferroalloy industry.

(4) Ferrosilicon 75 in magnesium smelting is often utilized in the high-temperature processes involved in magnesium production, facilitating magnesium replacement in CaO.MgO. Approximately 1.2 tons of ferrosilicon are consumed per ton of magnesium produced, significantly contributing to magnesium extraction processes.
