Features

Stable Molten Copper Holding

The holding furnace balances molten copper temperature and flow fluctuations between the melting furnace and casting equipment. This helps the casting package or casting machine receive stable and high-quality molten copper.

Accurate Temperature Control

The furnace chamber temperature is measured online by thermocouple, making it easier for operators to monitor and control daily heating and casting temperature. PLC/HMI control can be configured according to project requirements.

High Thermal Insulation Performance

The steel furnace body, refractory lining and insulation structure help reduce heat loss during molten copper holding. Stable insulation supports lower energy consumption and more consistent process conditions.

Durable Refractory Lining

The documented furnace uses silicon nitride bonded silicon carbide brick for the furnace lining and corundum refractory material for the furnace door lining. This structure is suitable for long-term high-temperature molten copper service.

Smooth Molten Copper Discharge

The inlet and outlet are positioned at the rotation center of the furnace body, while hydraulic cylinders support fine tilting and continuous tilting. This design helps control molten copper flow to the casting process.

What is a copper holding furnace?
A copper holding furnace is an industrial furnace used to keep molten copper at a stable temperature before casting, rolling, pouring or other downstream processes.
What is the function of a holding furnace in a copper production line?
It works as a temperature and flow buffer between the melting furnace and casting equipment, helping downstream production receive stable molten copper.
Can the holding capacity be customized?
Yes. The documented furnace is about 20T, and other capacities can be customized according to production capacity, plant layout and downstream equipment.
What heating methods are available?
The documented configuration uses natural gas burner heating. Other heating methods or fuel systems can be evaluated according to project conditions.
Is the copper holding furnace suitable for copper CCR lines?
Yes. It is suitable for copper CCR lines, copper rod production lines and continuous casting systems where stable molten copper supply is required.
Can it work with a copper shaft furnace or melting furnace?
Yes. The holding furnace can be matched with a vertical shaft furnace, copper melting furnace, launder system and casting machine as part of a complete production line.
