Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed technical specifications and features of various types of furnaces used for melting and holding non-ferrous metals, specifically focusing on bale-out and tilting furnaces. It covers both electrically heated and fuel-fired options, highlighting their construction, energy efficiency, and operational benefits.
Electrically Heated Bale-out Furnaces:
  • Features include rugged casing, compact design for easy access, excellent thermal insulation, and low energy consumption (approx. 0.4 kWh/kg aluminium).
  • Heating elements are wound on ceramic tubes for efficient heat radiation and longer service life.
  • Uniform heating from four sides ensures high metal quality and good crucible life.
  • Models vary in capacity, melting rates, and maximum temperature (1100°C, 1200°C, 1300°C).
Electrically Heated Tilting Furnaces:
  • Designed for safe and reliable pouring with hydraulic cylinders and precision dosing.
  • Low outer casing temperature and energy consumption due to superior insulation.
  • Models offer varying capacities and melting rates, with maximum temperatures of 1200°C and 1300°C.
Fuel-fired Bale-out and Tilting Furnaces:
  • Available in oil or gas-fired options, these furnaces offer high melting rates and low energy consumption (approx. 1.3 kWh/kg Al).
  • Features include rugged design, high-quality burner technology, and uniform heating.
  • Models are equipped with emergency outlet drains and optional operating platforms.
Heat Treatment Furnace Systems:
  • Includes chamber, bogie-hearth, and pit-type furnaces for various heat treatment applications.
  • Available in electrically heated or gas-fired options, with normal or inert gas atmospheres.
  • Systems can be semi-automatic or fully automatic, with integrated quenching and washing facilities.
Control and Regulation Technology:
  • Furnaces are equipped with state-of-the-art microprocessor controllers for precise temperature regulation.
  • Control panels feature solid-state relays, safety devices, and options for melt temperature control and alarms.
Company Information:
  • THERMCONCEPT specializes in furnaces for metal melting and heat treatment, offering both standard and customized solutions.
  • Emphasizes the use of high-quality materials and cutting-edge designs for efficiency and reliability.
