Tilt Pouring Furnace

Tilt pouring furnace is used in the metal casting industry for melting and pouring molten metal into moulds or casting cavities. It is designed with a tilting mechanism that allows the crucible or container holding the molten metal to be tilted and poured easily and precisely.

Tempsens make Tilt pouring furnaces specially designed to be used in foundries, various metal casting process like Die casting, Sand casting, Investment casting or different types of Nonferrous metal casting, metalworking shops, and manufacturing facilities where precision casting is essential. Their ability to tilt and control the pouring angle ensures consistentcasting quality and minimizes defects in the finished products.

Application:

  • application tilt pouring furnace

    Glass Industries: A tilt-pouring furnace is a type of furnace used in glass melting processes,particularly in the production of art glass, small-scale glass blowing wing, and some industrial glass applications. It is designed to melt glass at high temperatures and then pour it into moulds or gather it for further shaping by artisans or glass workers.

  • Foundries: Tilt pouring furnaces are commonly used in foundries for the production of metal castings.They can melt various types of metals, including iron, steel or non-ferrous metals like aluminium, brass, and bronze etc. Foundries use them to pour molten metal into moulds to create cast parts and components for industries such as automotive, aerospace, and construction.

  • Die Casting: Die casting involves the injection of molten metal into reusable moulds (called dies) to create parts with complex shapes and tight tolerances. Tilt pouring furnaces are used to maintain a continuous supply of molten metal for die casting machines, ensuring a steady and precise flow of material into the dies.

  • Investment Casting: Investment casting, also known as precision casting, is a process where a wax or plastic pattern is coated in aceramic shell and then melted out to leave a cavity for pouring molten metal. Tilt pouring furnaces are used to deliver molten metal to the investment casting moulds, ensuring that the metal fills the cavities without defects.

  • Non-Ferrous Metal Casting: Tilt pouring furnaces are commonly used for melting and pouring non-ferrous metals like aluminum, brass, and bronze. These metals have lower melting points compared to steel or iron, and tilt furnaces are designed to handle them effectively.

  • Continuous Casting: Some industries, such as steel production, use tilt furnaces in continuous casting processes. In this application, the furnace continuously supplies molten metal to a casting machine, which produces long, continuous metal strands or billets.

  • Laboratory and Small-Scale Applications: Tilt pouring furnaces are also used in research and development settings, as well as in small-scale production environments, where precise control over the pouring process is essential for experimentation or specialized casting.
