A Reverbatory Melting Furnace with a multi-chamber design offers advanced monitoring capabilities to enhance efficiency, safety, and sustainability. Operators can track key parameters such as scrap pile condition, burner flame stability, dross generation, furnace circulation, metal levels, and refractory wear.
This real-time insight enables proactive maintenance, energy savings, and improved melt rates. By keeping furnace doors closed, heat loss is minimized, CO₂ emissions are reduced, and worker safety is enhanced. Additionally, intelligent monitoring features support data-driven decision-making, optimizing operations and troubleshooting.
Key Benefits
Enhanced Safety
Keep operators safe by allowing them to monitor furnace conditions remotely, with the door closed. This minimises exposure to extreme heat, potential hazards, and floor traffic in the casting area.
Energy Savings
Avoid unnecessary energy losses from open furnace doors. A furnace loses radiant heat very quickly once the door is open and it requires three times that energy to recover the temperature. Keeping doors closed shortens melt cycles, reduces CO₂ emissions, and conserves energy.
Improved Melt Rates
Monitor scrap material as it melts and identify when to skim or add more material, reducing cycle times while ensuring efficient operations—all without opening the furnace door.
Proactive Maintenance Planning
Track refractory wear over time and make data-driven adjustments to burner controls to prevent issues. This approach extends furnace life and reduces unplanned maintenance.
Troubleshooting and Incident Analysis
In the event of a problem, review recorded footage to analyse and resolve incidents. Use insights to implement preventative measures and optimize future operations.
Intelligent Operations
Beyond visual monitoring, our cameras integrate smart features like prompts for charging or skimming. Additional intelligent capabilities under development include advanced monitoring of burner flames and refractory conditions.
