TILTING CRUCIBLE FURNACE
The nose pour
feature permits precise control of molten metal flow into a
mold or pouring ladle. The nose pour configuration locates the
crucible pouring lip coaxial with the trunnion bearings, so it
is in a constant position during pouring. This provides
greater safety and the shorter molten metal stream reduces the
amount of hot metal exposed to cooling and oxidation.
The tilting
mechanism is available in either hydraulic or manual hoist
configuration, as shown in the illustration. The hydraulic
tilt is designed with two double acting cylinders with
hydraulic pump, valves and control systems. The manual hoist
system employs an overhead chain, electric or air hoist
(furnished by customer) to tilt the furnace. Each design
assures a smooth pouring action.

Zinc or Kirksite: up to 20,000 lbs.
Lead: up to 30,000 lbs.
is building larger,
tilting, crucible or cast iron pot melters that can produce
fast, economical melts of non-ferrous metals. Currently
available are the models T-600, T-1000, T-1500, T-2000 and
T-2500. The T-1000 has a capacity of 1000 lbs. of aluminum and
2400 lbs. of brass or bronze. The T-1000 can produce
economical melts in as little as 70 minutes for aluminum and
approximately 2-1/2 hours for brass, from a cold start. All
are lined with the same high alumina, pre-fired refractory
bricks that all our melters feature, for long life and
resistance to flaking and spalling. All units feature
hydraulic tilting and a hydraulic lid lift as well. These
models are also available with temperature control and can be
fitted for recuperative burner systems for additional savings
in fuel consumption. MIFCO offers 2 types of burner systems on
the tilter series: package burners (standard), burners with
I.R.I. and FM approved valve trains. Custom
sizes are also available. Maximum capacities are 7500 lbs. of
Aluminum (cast iron pot), 20,000 lbs. of Zinc or Kirksite,
30,000 lbs. of Lead.
