Induction Melting Systems with capacity from 0.06 to 0.8 ton

Induction Melting Systems are designed to melt ferrous and non-ferrous metals with medium frequency current. RELTEC has designed and at present manufactures induction melting systems in line with the modern requirements of foundries.

 A set of supply includes:

• SCR frequency converter (SCR FC) with a set of spare parts and digital or analog-digital control system;
• Induction Melting System (IMS) in a case made of aluminum and stainless steel (one or two furnaces);
• Unit of balancing capacitors (CU);
• Set of connecting bus bars according to a Customer’s site conditions;
• Two-circuit cooling station with ion-exchange filter;
• Remote control station (RCS);
• Hydraulic drive for furnace turnover with remote control station;
• Cooling water monitor box;
• Lining leakage diagnostics;
• Elaboration of construction order according to a Customer’s site conditions.

RELTEC’s service group is responsible for:

• Complete turnkey installation;
• Elaboration of construction order according to a Customer’s workshop conditions;
• Erection work, check out and start up at a Customer’s site;
• Service warranty and post-warranty maintenance;
• Staff training at workplace.

Advantages:

• Active mixing of metal and high uniformity of smelt;
• Possibility for zone mixing (energy focusing) in a furnace;
• Absence of alloying elements waste;
• Possibility for melting without heel;
• Manifold technological possibilities and wide variety of furnace capacities, refractory materials and operating frequencies;
• Precise regulation of smelt temperature;
• Possibility for melting and soaking in one furnace unit;
• Instantaneous production availability;
• High melting rate;
• Small rates of energy consumption per a ton of metal;
• Ecological properties of technological process;
• Maintenance of supply quality;
• Melting of non-ferrous metals in a crucible.
