Casthouse Process Auditing
Our department has extensive experience about how casthouse equipment should be operated to optimise performance as well as knowledge about how to refine operating practices.
Years of experience mean that we have the ability to compare the performance of specific equipment with our own databases. Our knowledge about the complex relationships between the operation of equipment and metal quality,enable us to tailor operations to product needs.
Some specific examples include:
-
Optimisation of gas usage and hydrogen removal performance on degassing equipment.
-
Effective furnace cleaning and fluxing practices for inclusion reduction.
-
Successful use of grain refiner additions, to provide cost reductions at the same time as performance improvements.
