Induction melting describes the process of melting metal into liquid in an induction furnace for casting workpieces.
The induction melting furnace is based on electromagnetic induction heating to work, whereby an alternating current is applied in the induction coil to generate heat. This heat directly melts the metal material in the quartz crucible. As a result, induction melting offers a lot of benefits such as high-quality liquid metal with less impurities, increased safety, and faster melting speed.
The application of induction melting is vast and is applied in various metal types such as steel, iron, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and other non-ferrous metals. Furthermore, induction melting is widely used in industry for casting.
The medium frequency induction melting machine adopts the solid state IGBT frequency conversion-control technology, which significantly improves reliability due to the various protective controls that it provides. This includes overcurrent, water shortage, overheating, over-voltage, short circuit, and phase missing.
It also features a display of current, voltage, and time that enables users to perceive the working conditions easily and offers guidance to induction coil design and capacitance control.
This machine is characterized by its small size and light weight which allows it to occupy most Isqm, and its portability ensures that the continuous heating ability can be provided for 24 hours. Furthermore, the low power consumption and electromagnetic grinding capability ensures that the metal can be heated regularly and in an evenly distributed temperature throughout with a melting time of around 30-50 minutes per furnace.
Lastly, the environmentally friendly nature combined with the features of intelligent control, energy efficiency, simple installation, precise digital controls, and real-time use all contribute to the enhanced performance and safety of the machine.
VS Resistance Heated Furnace:
High heat efficiency and fast melting capabilities are the advantages of a resistance-heated furnace. These units are smaller in size, which helps them save up to 30% in energy. The downside to these types of furnaces is that their resistance or silicon carbide stocks may be prone to damage.
VS Coal, Gas, Diesel Furnace:
Diesel and gas furnaces are often used due to their ability to adjust the solution composition and temperature. Additionally, these furnaces tend to decrease the number of bubbles in the foundry by 1/3-1/4, as well as the rejection rate by 1/2-2/3, which consequently leads to higher mechanical strengths of casted items. Environmental pollution is also reduced, with a decrease in noise levels below those of tall equipment. The labor intensity for workers and the working conditions are improved due to these advantages. The downside of using Coal or gas furnaces, however, is that utilizing cast-iron crucibles for melting aluminum may increase impurities.
VS SCR or Frequency Melting Furnace:
SCR and Frequency melting furnaces are a great option due to their efficient use of energy and their fast melting capabilities. The small size of these types of furnaces helps them save more than 20% of energy. Furthermore, an electromagnetic stirring effect is slight, leading to an increased service life of the crucible. Additionally, adjusting the frequency allows power regulation which in turn speeds up the melting process as well as reduces burning loss in materials, saving casting costs significantly for materials such as stainless steel, copper, and silicon.
Such as Equipment 70KW Melting Aluminum, Cost of Melting:
For melting aluminum using 70KW equipment, the cost breakdown is as follows: 70% for the Resistance melting furnace, 70% for the Frequency melting furnace, 60% for the Diesel melting furnace, and 80% for the SCR melting furnace.
