15-120T Tilting Aluminium Melting Furnace

The 15-120T Tilting Aluminium Melting Furnace is a gas‑fired round furnace for aluminium ingots, scraps and master alloys, ideal for 1xxx/6xxx alloy rod and casting production. Equipped with dual regenerative burners, it recovers flue‑gas waste heat for higher thermal efficiency, faster melting and lower per‑ton production cost. Hydraulic tilting with closed‑loop PLC control, laser level monitoring, limit probes and emergency‑return function guarantee stable molten‑aluminum outflow and safe operation.

Features

Lower Gas Consumption

The regenerative burner system stores heat from outgoing flue gas and uses it to preheat combustion air during the next firing cycle. This improves heat utilization and supports energy consumption of <=60 Nm3/t-Al under the specified test condition.

Stable Molten Aluminum Flow

Hydraulic tilting is controlled by PLC calculation based on real-time launder level data. The laser distance meter enables +/-2 mm molten aluminum level control, supporting stable feeding to downstream equipment.

Longer Refractory Life

The molten bath area uses non-wetting aluminum castable, anti-penetration castable, lightweight insulation brick and aluminum silicate fiber board. Segmented castable construction helps absorb thermal expansion and reduce molten aluminum leakage risk.

Improved Door Sealing

The furnace door is hydraulically lifted and pressed by cylinders. Heat-resistant castings around the door opening create a reliable sealing surface, reducing heat loss and smoke leakage.

Reliable Combustion Safety

Each burner is equipped with automatic ignition and UV flame detection. If flame failure occurs, the system cuts off gas supply and triggers alarms to protect operators and equipment.
