Two-Chamber Machine Furnace
Advantages of the new magnesium machine furnace:
Stable, easily exchanged heating racks
Low power load of the heating elements
Less expensive heating racks / heating elements
No large power loss during a breakdown of single heating elements due to corresponding parallel connection to the power supply
Uniform load on the crucible (longer life)
High stability of the temperature of the metal bath (less segregation)
Ingot Preheating and Charging Device IPC – Meltec
Preheating of 150 kg Mg/h up to 200 °C
Magazine with approx. 14 ingots (~ 100 kg Mg)
Higher melting capacity of the machine furnace (> 25 %)
Minimum floor space requirement (~ 1.5 m²)
User-friendliness
With the IPC, not only is the safety of the magnesium ingots improved. The supervision of the bath level and the continuous charging of heated ingots considerably improves the working process.
The bath level is constant. This is especially important for the injection process of the hot chamber machines.
Stability of the metal temperature in the machine furnace à less segregation
No large turbulences and losses in inert gas. For the ingot charging no lid can be opened without control, hence less slag.
