Tilting table Fives Solios

Tilting tables

Transfer of molten aluminium from the Potroom crucibles in to the furnaces can be carried out in several different methods one of the most common is a crucible tilt machine station.

Fives Solios offers to the client such systems to optimise safety around the cast house furnace.
The main advantages with using this type of machine is that once the crucible has been located on the station the operator can remotely instigate the tilt operation; the tilt mechanism can then move the crucible through a pre programmed tilt action with a hydraulic proportional valve, the crucible will empty the molten aluminium into the furnace at a controlled safe rate. This eliminates operator intervention and metal spillage thus adding a safe environment in the casthouse for a potentially dangerous process.
