Holding Furnace

Holding furnaces maintain molten-aluminum temperature, support alloy adjustment and provide a stable metal supply to downstream ingot, billet or die-casting processes. Rectangular, round, tilting or silicon-carbide electric arrangements can be selected for the process and plant layout.

Selection points

  • Molten-metal temperature, holding capacity and alloy adjustment needs
  • Fuel or power conditions, including voltage and frequency
  • Tapping, transfer launder and casting-line layout
  • Lining, temperature control, weighing, PLC and operator interface needs
