The hydrogen burner-equipped aluminum melting holding furnace under development has been featured in "Die Casting News."

A test furnace based on actual equipment that uses a hydrogen burner for melting and an electric heater for holding. It is possible to conduct thorough tests for decarbonization in aluminum casting sites together with our customers!

It is possible to conduct aluminum melting tests using hydrogen combustion with ingot input. Please use it to verify the quality of the molten metal and its impact on the products. The melting gas burner employs a hydrogen burner and electric heaters for retention! It is a hybrid furnace that enables carbon neutrality. By exchanging burner components, you can switch between fuel gases (hydrogen/LNG (natural gas)/LPG), allowing for adaptability based on gas supply trends. Additionally, the furnace structure has a high oxide suppression effect, which you can verify in actual operation. We are committed to solving problems in aluminum casting sites and promoting low carbonization. Please feel free to reach out to us. ~Equipment Overview~ Test Furnace: Aluminum Handheld Melting Retention Furnace (Oxide Suppression Structure) Model: SMH-150H2 Melting Capacity: 150kg/h Retention Capacity: Retention Chamber 800kg/ch *Actual effective capacity during continuous melting, specific gravity 2.4 Melting Temperature: 660–680℃ Control Accuracy: ±5℃ ~Heat Source Configuration~ Melting Burner: Hydrogen Combustion Burner 116kW x 1 unit Retention Heater: Immersion Type Electric Heater 9kW x 2 units Fuel Used: Hydrogen (city gas 13A and propane gas are also possible) Power Supply: 200V/60Hz for power, 100V for operation

The high-temperature gas burner series now includes a hydrogen combustion specification! It can be used in various industrial furnaces due to its tile top.

The combustion range is large, allowing for stable combustion even with excess air. It is a "hydrogen burner" type using hydrogen as fuel for the high-temperature gas burner "EIS burner." The tile top (castable) can accommodate temperatures up to 1200°C! It supports preheated air up to 300°C. 【Features】 □ Achieves stable combustion and low NOx performance □ Flame shape equivalent to city gas/propane combustion □ Structure with excellent maintenance characteristics □ Simple piping system with direct ignition method You can convert your existing EIS burner to hydrogen combustion by replacing parts, allowing for evaluation tests on the impact on non-heated materials (workpieces), etc. *1 Achievements with conventional gas specifications are available. The H2 model is currently under testing. *2 Piping facilities compatible with hydrogen combustion are required. Please contact us for more details and consultation.

Reduces the occurrence of oxides and significantly decreases the hassle of cleaning the retention chamber. (About once every six months to a year!)

Oxide Suppression Furnace: SMH Series (Aluminum Holding Melting Furnace / Aluminum Central Melting Furnace) 【Features】 ◇ Maintains a low atmosphere temperature in the holding chamber (below 800°C) and keeps the residual oxygen concentration below 1%, utilizing the protective effect of the aluminum oxide film to slow down the progression of oxidation with a new concept furnace structure. ◇ Equipped with a newly developed flat frame burner to avoid directly applying flames to the molten metal in the holding chamber, preventing surface agitation, and implementing energy-saving measures through a heat exchanger that utilizes exhaust gas (a hybrid version with electric heaters is also available). ◇ To achieve significant forced convection heat transfer through matching the furnace structure, it is equipped with a newly developed melting burner that considers flame length, diameter, and speed. 【Expected Effects】 (Compared to our conventional furnaces) By using the oxide suppression furnace... ○ Reduction in the frequency of cleaning the holding chamber (proven to be unnecessary for up to one year) ○ Elimination of flux treatment (may be performed in the melting chamber depending on dross volume) ○ Improvement in molten metal quality (reduction of hydrogen gas and inclusions in the molten metal) ○ Increased yield due to reduced material loss ○ Improved fuel efficiency through energy recovery from exhaust heat in the holding chamber ○ Improved working environment due to reduced furnace surface temperature

Contec Co., Ltd. has started selling the "SH-9210TSN," an industrial managed switching hub that has obtained CC-Link IE TSN recommended network wiring component certification Class B. It features dual power supply redundancy, a DC power input, eight gigabit ports, and two SFP slots. The SH-9210TSN complies with IEEE 802.3ab (1000BASE-T), IEEE 802.3u (100BASE-TX), and IEEE 802.3 (10BASE-T) standards, and is designed for use in environments where quiet operation and long lifespan are required due to its fanless design. Additionally, it achieves an operating temperature range of -10 to 65°C thanks to its excellent heat dissipation metal casing. It can be installed on a 35mm DIN rail or mounted on walls using various mounting brackets. In addition to a wide-range DC power input (12-48VDC), it supports input from two power supply lines and includes various managed functions for network management, control, and reliability enhancement.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.
