This procedure maximizes efficiency in keeping the stack full, especially with a low-density charge that aluminum scrap can present. As it melts, the metal flows into the holding chamber, where it is alloyed to a certain specification. In addition to low fuel consumption, this technology lends itself to lower metal loss due the burning off of contaminants in the stack.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\">A programmable logic controller and HMI in the control panel handle equipment motion, temperature, combustion, stack level, metal level, and fault annunciation functions. A three-point laser metal level sensor notifies operators of the current furnace metal level through an attached light tree.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\">According to Lindberg\u2019s Andrew Paul, \u201cThe stack melter design is the most efficient method of melting aluminum scrap and ingot, because it utilizes combustion gases to preheat the metal in the furnace stack prior to melting. In addition, the stack melter top portion enables the exhaust of the flue gases, while insulating the other portions for fuel efficiency.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lindbergMPH.com\">www.lindbergMPH.com<\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lindberg MPH, Riverside, Mich., has built a gas-fired stack-type central melting furnace that will be utilized to produce aluminum ingot and sows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":63103,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[440,441,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10289","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-news-articles","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
