Electric Immersion Holding Furnace
The Electric Immersion Holding Furnace is a specialised piece of equipment designed for use in the die-casting process. Its primary function is to hold molten aluminium at a consistent temperature, allowing for a smoother and more efficient casting process. The furnace is made up of a steel shell, which houses an electric heating element, and an immersion tube, which is used to introduce molten aluminium into the furnace.
The Electric Immersion Holding Furnace is typically configured as a standalone unit, although it can be integrated into a larger die-casting system. The furnace is heated by an electric heating element.
Function
It is used to hold and maintain a constant temperature of the molten aluminium to ensure quality casting results.
Configuration
The furnace features an immersion heating system, a digital temperature controller, and a crucible to hold the molten metal.
Features
Pit batch ovens typically come equipped with a number of features, such as programmable temperature control, digital readouts, automatic shut-off systems, and safety interlocks.
Temperature Range
The furnace can maintain a temperature range as per the process requirement.
Power Requirement
The Electric Immersion Holding Furnace requires a three-phase electrical connection, with power requirements ranging as per the process requirement.
Heat Source
The furnace is powered by natural gas, which is burned to create heat for the melting and holding processes.
Capacity
The Electric Immersion Holding Furnace is available in various capacities, or as per the requirement.
