About feeding in the induction smelting furnace

When the induction smelting furnace is working, feeding is the basis to ensure the smooth progress of the metal smelting process.

If the feeding is unreasonable, it will increase the burning consumption of the metal, which will eventually lead to excessive power consumption and increase the input cost. Therefore, it is important to know something about the charging of the induction smelting furnace.

Below, the editors of Judian will share with you some precautions about adding ingredients.

Different metal materials have different performance characteristics. For the charge with low density and low melting point, larger blocks, such as aluminum, can be used. Charges with high density and high melting points, such as Ferro tungsten, ferro-molybdenum, micro-carbon ferrochromium, etc., must be broken into smaller pieces.

The size of the furnace body and the level of frequency determines the size of the smelting material. Low-frequency, large-capacity furnaces can use large pieces of charge. Higher frequency, smaller capacity furnaces require the use of smaller chunks.

When feeding, try to ensure that the upper part is loose and the lower part is compact. When the upper metal bulk density is small, it is helpful for the downward smelting material, which can speed up the smelting speed of the metal and ensure stable heating efficiency.

When the induction smelting furnace is working, the bottom and the upper part are the low-temperature areas of ​​the furnace, and materials that are easy to melt should be installed, and the middle part is the temperature concentration area, and materials with high melting points and high density should be installed. Sometimes cracks appear in the furnace lining because the feeding sequence is wrong, so special attention is required.

It should be noted that slag should be loaded at the bottom of the furnace before feeding, which can reduce air pollution.

This is some of the feeding knowledge we have compiled for you about induction furnaces.
