Scrap Charging Machines

Scrap Charging Machines

SCRAP CHARGERS are suitable for charging the scrap material in to the melting furnaces of SCRAP RECYCLING / ALLOYING units where scrap charging time can be drastically reduced as against manual charging. Charging machine not only reduces manpower required for charging but also makes it a safe operation and reduces possible chances of accidents which may cause because of explosion or metal splash. Since charging time is significantly reduced, door open time is also reduced which straight way results in energy saving as most of the heat contained is normally lost when door is kept open for manual charging which requires more energy to compensate.
FURNTECK design and manufacturer the charging machines for Melting furnaces to facilitate quick and easy charging of the furnace.
The auto charging ensures,

• Quick charging minimising heat loss while door is open.
• Completely safe operation by avoiding exposure of operator and personnel to furnace while charging.
• Protection to refractory by having controlled charging.
• Uniform distribution of scrap which provides effective melting.

The machines are custom designed to suit new or existing furnaces and plant layouts. The travelling can be lateral or linear with weighing module as an option. The machines can be made fully automatic with furnace integration and can have different recipes for different type of scraps. Additionally, the machines are equipped with a REMOTE CONTROL to enable operator control machine by staying away from it.
