Preheating and temperature controls
The production of metals uses different types of container (ladles, crucibles, pouring channels, tundishes…) to transfer the molten metal during the various pouring phases.
The oxy combustion ladle preheating systems, specially studied for individual applications, ensure:
-
faster heating of the refractory lining compared with traditional air systems
-
higher preheating temperatures
-
fuel saving
-
greater fluidity of the metal during pouring with better quality of the castings produced
-
a reduction in the amount of waste.
