Overview & technical details
The transition from the stage of using cast iron parts to aluminum parts has caused the casters to pay more attention to the quality and mechanical characteristics of the used alloys and as a result devote more time to metallurgical operations.
“SIST 5 GR” device is designed for this purpose. “SIST 5 GR” is not only a degassing device, but a real platform suitable for performing metallurgical operations in a complete and repeated manner, completely eliminating possible errors caused by human intervention and fully guaranteeing the results.
ADVANTAGES
- Porosity reduction
- Cleanliness of the alloy (microstructure)
- Reduce production cycle time
- Reproducibility of results
- Reduction in costs
- Reducing the emission of gases and vapors
- Effective purification
product introduction
SIST 5 GR is indicated for the addition of granular and powdered deoxidising, modifying and refining products. The hopper can hold up to 25 kg of flux and has a level indicator that signals a lack of product. A pipe conveys the product to the vortex created by a graphite shaft and rotor. An automatic blade-rotation system creates a vortex that is only needed when dosing the flux. The degassing treatment takes place in the absence of the vortex with the descent of the blade into the bath.
The electrical control panel, with PLC, allows:
– Operating in manual, automatic or maintenance mode
– Enabling and disabling flux dosing
– Selecting from 10 cycles that manage:
- Regulation of the total cycle time
- Dosing delays and product quantities
- The machine’s safety devices
