PIG IRONS
used in the manufacture of ductile [also known as nodular or spheroidal graphite – SG] iron castings.
Nodular Pig Iron is the high purity grade of Pig Iron, it has very low impurity element such as Mn, Cr, S, P, Ti, As and V then this Pig Iron Grade suite for the production of Ductile Cast Iron (FCD).
The Nodular pig iron producing from the good iron ore in Brazil by the smelting process to achieve the good quality of basic and foundry grade of pig iron.
Foundry Pig Iron is the density charge to the furnace so melting time it short as a result the productivity increas

HEMATITE PIG IRON [also known as FOUNDRY PIG IRON] is used mainly in the manufacture of grey iron castings in cupola or induction furnaces.
Foundry Pig Iron is the density charge to the furnace so melting time it short as a result the productivity increasing.
