Magnalenz Induction Furnaces are
designed and produced by studying all available existing Furnaces in
the world, adapting all superior features, adding all up-to-date
technologies and combining the necessary needs indicated by
foundrymen. For the coming millenium years of 2000 and beyond,
Magnalenz proudly presents to modern, automated foundries and steel
plants with the most Economical, the most Reliable, the most Efficient and
high Quality Induction Furnace viz. FERmelt. Benefits of Medium Frequency Induction
Furnace: ⢠Lower power
consumption and enhanced economy: Modern semi-conductor technology and
an optimum furnace design minimize the power demand and consumption,
thus reducing the melting cost. ⢠High operational
safety: Safe melting operations, thanks to continuous, automatic
furnace monitoring. ⢠Favorable
price/performance ratio and long life cycle: The use of Magnalenz
standard modules in the melting plant are responsible for its
favorable price. These Magnalenz furnace systems are known to be
rugged and reliable, minimize total life cycle costs. ⢠Easy to install,
operate and maintain The advanced furnace
design was conceived for quick and easy installation. System
operation, monitoring and control are user-friendly and simple.
Higher Yield: The absence of
combustion sources reduces oxidation losses that can be significant
in production economics.
Faster Startup: Full power from
the power supply is available, instantaneously, thus reducing the
time to reach working temperature.
Flexibility: No molten metal is
necessary to start medium frequency, coreless induction melting
equipment. This facilitates repeated cold starting and frequent alloy
changes.
Natural Stirring: Medium
frequency units can give a strong stirring action resulting in a
homogeneous melt. Cleaner Melting: No by-products
of combustion means a cleaner melting environment and no associated
products of combustion pollution control systems.
Compact Installation: High
melting rates can be obtained from small furnaces. A coreless furnace
capable of melting 2,500 lbs./hr. of aluminum has a crucible
measuring 3' in diameter by 6' in depth.
Reduced Refractory: The compact
size in relation to melting rate means induction furnaces require
much less refractory than fuel-fired units.
Better Working Environment:
Induction furnaces are much quieter than gas furnaces, arc furnaces,
or cupolas. No combustion gas is present and waste heat is minimized.
Energy Conservation: Overall
energy efficiency in induction melting ranges from 55 to 75 percent,
and is significantly better than combustion processes.
