Industrial Furnaces

Heavy-duty tilting type melting furnace with 6-ton capacity, stainless steel construction, and electric-driven tilting mechanism for safe and efficient metal pouring in foundry operations.

Working Principle

<p>The furnace uses radiant heat and convection from fuel combustion (oil, gas, or biomass) to melt metals in a crucible or refractory-lined chamber. The tilting mechanism is driven by a hydraulic cylinder or worm gear assembly powered by an electric motor. When the metal reaches the desired temperature, the operator activates the tilting system to rotate the furnace body on its trunnion axis, allowing controlled pouring of molten metal. The tilt angle is adjustable, typically from 0° to 95°, providing precise control over the pour rate and volume.</p>

Frequently Asked Questions

The Tilting Type Melting Furnace has a 6-ton melting capacity, suitable for medium to large-scale foundry operations requiring high-volume metal melting.

The tilting mechanism uses a hydraulic cylinder or worm gear assembly powered by an electric motor. It rotates the furnace body on trunnion bearings, allowing controlled pouring at adjustable angles from 0° to 95°.

This furnace can melt aluminium, copper, brass, zinc, and other non-ferrous metals. The temperature range of 700°C - 1200°C accommodates various metal melting requirements.

Yes, the furnace includes safety interlocks on the tilting system, emergency stop controls, and the hydraulic tilting eliminates the need for manual lifting of molten metal, significantly improving operator safety.

The furnace controls and tilting mechanism operate on standard 220V electric supply with 1-3 kW power consumption. The main heating can be oil, gas, or biomass-fired depending on configuration.
