Melting Plant

Our crucible furnace melting systems can be designed in the smaller sizes as compact units, which are mounted on a common base or in a common container with the exception of the possibly required external heat exchanger (water - air). They are suitable for installation on the hall corridor. The work and times required on site until the system is ready for operation are reduced to a minimum thanks to the high degree of prefabrication. After the installation and placement of the system, the following connections must be made:

• Cooling water supply line to the cooling tower or the process water supply
• Cooling water return line to the cooling tower or the process water return
• City water connection (automatic emergency water and automatic filling)    
  
• Water drain   
  
• Electric power feed

Our standard range includes following furnace sizes (net capacity based on gray cast iron), equipped with one or two furnaces:

Basic equipment of our systems:

• Programmable logic controller with extensive monitoring, messages and operator guidance

• Analog recording of measured values ​​for the entire cooling system and all system values
• Plain text display for messages, operator guidance and system values
• Stainless steel plate heat exchanger to separate the primary and secondary cooling circuit
• Primary cooling circuit in copper pipe design
• Circuit breaker to protect the entire system
• Earth fault monitoring
• Furnace yokes for better magnetic field guidance, coil cage in welded design
• Double-wrapped and soaked oven spool to protect against moisture in the lining
• Manually operated furnace lid
• Automatic emergency water to protect the furnace coil in the event of a cooling water failure
• Temperature measurement of the melt using a lance

Options:

• HSG technology with sinusoidal input current
• Continuous distribution of the converter power to several furnaces
• Process visualization and melting processor with or without furnace scales
• Hydraulic furnace lid actuation
• Ring suction up to the swivel joint
• Furnace lid
