FIELD: metallurgy.

SUBSTANCE: furnace mixer comprises at least one bath with side walls and a bottom, at least one heater for heating molten and/or solid metal located in the bath, and an electromagnetic mixer inductor with a magnetic conductor and a winding mounted to apply electromagnetic field to the metal in the bath. The bottom is provided with stiffening ribs in the form of longitudinal and transverse beams, and the electromagnetic mixer inducer comprises at least two open-loop magnetic conductors, each of which has at least one inductor winding coil mounted under the bottom ensuring maximum approximation to the bottom of the magnetic conductors end surfaces.

EFFECT: efficient melt mixing in the entire bath volume, increased strength of the furnace mixer hearth, reduced inducer installation costs and increased service life of the furnace mixer.
