High quality foundry products are in huge demand nowadays. The cost effective production of these products places high demands of the charging equipment for melting plants. Though much of the production in foundries is achieved by automation, i.e. melt shop automation. It includes remote furnace charging systems. Let us have below the brief about induction furnaces & remote furnaces. Induction furnaces: Today’s most technologically advanced induction furnaces provide high power densities & are able to run to full power throughout the charging process. It is important to keep pace with the melting power of the system, which requires rapid furnace charging. However, charging the furnace can be a labor intensive, manual & time consuming operation. Charge materials are simply dumped into the furnace with wheel barrows or dropped inside manually. Besides, the inefficient use of manpower & time, manual operation can damage the furnace linings, if heavy charged material is dropped into the system, thus forming dent or cracking the wall or bottom refractory.
