Lindberg/MPH Ships Electrically Heated Hand-Tilting Aluminum Melting Furnace to the Die Casting Industry
May 16, 2017 – Lindberg/MPH announced the shipment of an electrically heated hand-tilting aluminum melting furnace to the sand casting industry. The furnace will be used as a central breakdown for transfer via bull ladle.
The resistance melting furnace has a melt rate of 50 lbs. per hour and can accommodate a crucible with a holding capacity of approximately 150 lbs. of molten aluminum. The furnace utilizes low voltage heating elements which provide a long service life.
The furnace shell is ruggedly reinforced with steel members and is lined with insulating firebrick and backup board resulting in a low exterior shell temperature. An easy to use hydraulic tilting mechanism is also included.
“At Lindberg/MPH we work to provide our customers with efficient solutions. The hydraulic tilting mechanism supplied with this aluminum melting furnace provided ease of use and efficiency for their operators.”- Andrew Paul, Sales Engineer
