Horizontal Continuous Casting Line

A typical horizontal continuous casting unit for copper tubes consists of a mains frequency cored melting-holding combined furnace with metal flowing under surface, a crystallizer, a cooling water distribution system, a servo control withdrawal system, an in-line synchronous saw, a saw for mold changing, a hydraulic system and an electric control system, etc.

A typical mains frequency furnace adopts a new combination structure of melting-casting with metal flowing under surface. The inductor adopts a vertical structure with silicon sheets imported. As the molten metal flows from the melting furace to the holding furnace under the surface, the heat emission (that would be otherwise caused) is avoided so as to reduce the energy consumption. Meantime, the metal loss is also reduced. As the exposure of the molten metal to the air is substantially reduced, the product quality can be stabilized and enhanced. The parameters of the melting-holding furnace like voltage,amperage, effective power and compensation factor are indicated with signals. The metal temperature in the furnace is comtinuously measured and displayed. Also indicated are the temperatures and pressures for the water for cooling the inductor coils, wrapping sleeves and cables with necessary optic and acoustic alarms equipped.
