Industries We Serve

Precision measurement solutions engineered for every critical point in the metal-making process — from blast furnace to final product.

Minco India's probes and sensors are in active use across steel plants, foundries, ferro alloy facilities and casting lines across India, Middle East, North Africa, Bangladesh and Japan. Each industry has unique temperature ranges, slag chemistries and process conditions — and we engineer for all of them.

Integrated Steel Plants (BF-BOF Route)

The blast furnace to basic oxygen furnace route is the dominant steelmaking method across India and the Middle East. Minco supplies measurement solutions at every critical stage — from hot metal temperature at the torpedo car, through the converter blow, to ladle metallurgy.

Our probes are dimensionally compatible with global brands, making Minco a seamless drop-in replacement for steel plants already running international sensors.

EAF Steelmaking

Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) Plants

EAF steelmaking demands probes that perform reliably in highly variable charge compositions, aggressive slag conditions and tight tap-to-tap cycle times. Minco's EAF-grade probes offer fast response times and high mechanical robustness for immersion in electrically hostile environments.

We supply to EAF operators in India (Arjas Steel, Monnet, ESL) and internationally including Gerdau, Emirates Steel, and AGSI in the Gulf region.

Secondary Metallurgy

Secondary Metallurgy & Ladle Refining Furnace

Secondary metallurgy is where the chemistry of steel is fine-tuned. Accurate oxygen measurement is critical here — it determines alloy addition rates, degassing efficiency, and final steel cleanliness. Our oxygen probes for LRF and RH/VD degasser applications deliver the precision your process metallurgists depend on.

Hydrogen measurement with our HydroinS system is increasingly important for high-value steel grades where hydrogen-induced cracking is a risk.

Continuous Casting — Tundish & Mold

Temperature consistency in the tundish and mold directly controls slab, billet and bloom quality. Superheat control requires accurate, fast-response measurement. Minco supplies tundish temperature probes and our MI cable compensating wire for permanent sensor connections across India's largest continuous casting operations.

Iron & Steel Foundries

Foundry environments demand high-volume, cost-effective measurement. Minco's foundry-grade thermocouple tips and samplers are optimised for rapid immersion cycles in induction and cupola furnace operations across India.

Our Make in India manufacturing cost advantage translates directly to significantly lower per-heat measurement costs compared to imported alternatives.
