Electrodes
McKeown has been working with suppliers to custom design electrodes for each customer’s specific needs. This is necessary since operating practices and conditions differ markedly from plant to plant. By careful design and manufacturing control, it is possible to successfully produce electrodes for specific conditions. Graphite electrodes are manufactured to uniform density throughout the cross section of the diameter. This results in lower current impedance, and yields higher rupture strength to achieve lower consumption. High density electrodes refer to vibrated product that ensures more even current distribution over the electrode cross section and, consequently, lower power consumption.
