Description
The authors will compare the SCR and Contirod processes in areas that include initial investment cost vs. rate of production tons per hour (or annual capacity); product defects and engineering solutions; surface quality of the rod made by SCR vs. Contirod; surface porosity defects and how to overcome them in a Hazelett casting system; internal wire core defects caused by casting flaws; technical and operational service and know-how for each process; unit cost to operate each casting and rolling system; and an advanced system to measure defects in real time
