remelt and holding furnaces
Background
Aluminium casthouses need to melt and hold metal with furnaces prior to casting. These equipments are critical to the good operation of the casthouse and the quality of the products.
They also are energy intensive thus represent a significant internal cost for manufacturers. Existing production line can be upgraded to deliver more tonnage, provide a safer environment for workers, be more energy efficient and easier to maintain.
Solution
Dynamic Concept believes a customized approach tailored to the specifics of each site is the best way to provide results that meet its client objectives. Depending on the budget available, the capacity increase goal as well as the energy efficiency target, it is possible to design effective solutions w/o the price tag associated with replacing major part or the whole existing process.
Past successful projects have shown us that energy savings up to 40% can be attained while improving charging time, reducing metal splashing, and increasing capacity, all of it within a budget affordable to most plants.
Features and benefits:
- Increasing of furnace capacity due to a new design of refractory
- New lighter door with improved suspending mechanism
- Energy saving up to 40% due to better sealing
- Reduction of furnace charging time and metal splashing
- Replacing of the door is now fast and safe
- Damper design for best pressure control on every range
- Optimal structural design and calculated thermal deformation and stresses
