ALUMINUM COMPETENCE IN FOUR STEPS

SOPHISTICATED REFRACTORY SYSTEM SOLUTIONS FOR ALUMINUM MELTING FURNACES

 

Optimal lining of your aluminum furnaces begins with the planning and development by our specialists. They know the process and the requirements for the furnaces and use them to create the optimum refractory lining. Whether primary or secondary aluminum industry, our process is divided into four steps:

 

ENGINEERING

The foundation of every lining concept is the heat transfer calculation in order to determine an ideal wall structure. The goal is optimum thermal insulation in conjunction with the ideal positioning of the solidification point. This requires extensive knowledge of various alloys and thermodynamic processes. The design of the necessary expansion, particularly of large furnaces, is also especially important. Here we, as a manufacturer, have access to all the data required for the calculations.

INSTALLATION

In addition to the technical design of your plant, installation of the refractory lining is an important cornerstone of a properly functioning furnace with maximum service life. For this reason, our supervisors are regularly trained in both the technical and practical areas.

COMMISSIONING

Drying and sintering of an aluminum furnace is just as important as the material concept and assembly. For this reason, we offer a complete external heating of your plant. Here the heating is monitored with thermocouples, and the temperature distribution in the furnace analyzed by thermography.

MAINTENANCE & CARE

Regular maintenance and care of your system ensures optimum operating conditions and increases its service life. Nothing is worse than an unexpected shutdown. We will be happy to provide the maintenance and service for you.
