DEMAG Electric Arc Furnace with 150 tons tapping weight
Ruhrstahl Henrichshütte, Hattingen, Germany
Closed down when photo taken, completely demolished since


There is quite a number of such furnaces in the collection yet, and even though this one seems to look rather small, it indeed is the one with the highest tapping weight of all EAFs I've seen so far.

With some luck, I will soon be able to present you photos of an ultra-modern 160 tons EAF that was put into service just one month and three days ago - which will be quite an interesting contrast to the rather old facility shown here. Stay tuned.
