A new standard for molten metal transport proposed by Aluander. It reduces aluminum loss and maintenance costs, achieving a higher level of energy efficiency!
A system for transporting aluminum molten metal from the melting furnace to the holding furnace, and between holding furnaces, by connecting the furnaces with pipes to move and distribute the molten metal. This system allows for a significant reduction in aluminum loss due to the generation of oxides by maintaining a constant liquid level.

basic information
Features: ● Operates on the siphon principle: By filling the pipe with molten metal and reducing the pressure within the device, molten metal automatically flows into the furnace as the liquid level drops. ● Installed without fixing to the furnace: The pipe is not fixed to the furnace and is placed between furnaces, allowing for installation without changing the position of existing furnaces. Advantages: ● Significant reduction in aluminum loss: The surface area exposed to air within the pipe is small, and compared to conventional molten metal transport methods, there is minimal air entrapment and liquid level fluctuations, reducing aluminum loss due to oxidation to about 1/6. ● Improved working environment: Eliminating the need for ladles and forklifts for transportation resolves issues such as splashing of molten metal, air pollution from exhaust gases, and workplace accidents. ● Reduced maintenance and management costs: Maintenance costs, including labor and parts management, can be reduced to about 1/3 of conventional methods. ● Safe during earthquakes: In emergencies such as earthquakes, the reduced pressure section automatically returns to atmospheric pressure, allowing the molten metal in the pipe to flow into the furnace, eliminating concerns about aluminum leakage from the pipe. *Patent obtained For more details, please contact us or download the catalog to view.
