Aluminum Melting and Holding Furnace

The aluminum melting and holding furnace is designed for the efficient melting and preservation of aluminum alloy melts. Its versatile design caters to processes such as degassing before aluminum casting, alloy preparation, structural uniformity, and temperature adjustments. This furnace ensures precise and safe operations, making it ideal for modern die-casting and casting applications.

Key Features and Advantages

1. High-Quality Molten Aluminum
   The aluminium holding furnace ensures a uniform composition and accurate temperature of the molten aluminum, resulting in lower hydrogen content and improved casting quality.

2. Flexible Production Organization
   The crucible can be easily replaced, allowing for the production of various aluminum alloys without contamination. This makes the furnace adaptable to diverse casting needs.

3. Reduced Aluminum Burn Loss
   By heating aluminum through the crucible's heat conduction, the furnace minimizes localized high temperatures, thereby reducing oxidation losses. The burn loss of aluminum is kept under 1.2%, ensuring material efficiency.

4. Enhanced Safety Design
   The furnace bottom is constructed with high-strength casting material and includes a water leakage system. If the crucible fails, the molten aluminum safely exits through this mechanism, protecting the furnace body and operator safety.

5. Efficient Temperature Control
   A series-loop temperature control system prevents overheating and ensures optimal heating efficiency for both the furnace and molten aluminum.

6. Advanced Thermocouple Protection
   The thermocouple protection tube is made of silicon nitride, offering excellent thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and durability. This allows accurate temperature measurements of molten aluminum, with a service life exceeding two years.

7. Comprehensive Safety Alarms
   Multiple safety mechanisms, such as over-temperature alarms for aluminum liquid and the furnace cavity, and crucible leakage alarms, provide reliable operational security.
