Abstract
A method for the handling of melt samples in a steelworks laboratory may involve processing and/or analyzing a melt sample in at least one first treatment apparatus and subsequently transporting the melt sample via at least one first transport path to at least one second treatment apparatus where the melt sample is subjected to further processing and/or analysis. As part of the transporting step, the method may involve clamping the melt sample on a sample carrier so that the sample carrier is transported together with the clamped-in melt sample between the treatment apparatuses and is positioned in the treatment apparatuses for processing and/or analysis.
Claims9
A method for handling melt samples in a steelworks laboratory, the method comprising:
- processing and/or analyzing a melt sample in a first treatment apparatus;
- transporting the melt sample after the processing and/or analyzing via a first transport path to a second treatment apparatus where the melt sample is further processed and/or analyzed, wherein the melt sample is clamped on a sample carrier and transported with the sample carrier between the first and second treatment apparatuses and is positionable in the first and second treatment apparatuses for the respective processing and/or analyzing;
- and
- further comprising at least one of cooling, surface treating, performing X-ray fluorescence analysis, or analyzing by spark emission spectrometry in either the first or second treatment apparatuses.
