Melting capacity | 250kg ~ 5tons iron | 1ton ~ 60tons iron | |
Outer shell construction | It is constructed by 2 halves of thick aluminum alloy shells. | The whole shell is welded as an integrated one. The material is steel. | For long-term using, the steel shell has more advantage due to the firm shell. |
Magnetic yoke | This type does not contain the magnetic yoke. The magnetic leakage is reduced based on the aluminum shell | It combines with the magnetic yoke which can gather the magnetic around the sensors. | The magnetic yoke can improve the melting efficiency and save the electric consumption 5%-8% than the aluminum shell |
Tilting System | It is controlled by the reduction box as the both sides on the picture. The furnace body is fixed by the reduction box in the air | It is controlled by the hydraulic system. The yellow part on the pic is the hydraulic cylinder to hold the furnace. The furnace body is put on the flat floor. | The hydraulic system has more precise tilting control with fixed pouring position. |
