Automatic Charging Car & Induction Furnace Iron Melting Operation At Our Client’s Foundry
Live Site Visit: Automatic Charging Car & Induction Furnace Iron Melting Operation At Our Client’s Foundry
Last week, our after-sales engineering team visited our overseas partner’s casting factory to conduct routine equipment inspection, debugging guidance and production tracking. We captured real working footage of the automatic charging feeding cart and medium frequency induction melting furnace during full-load iron smelting production.
Automatic Feeding Cart: Safe & Stable Scrap Charging Process
Traditionally, foundries rely on manual feeding to add scrap iron into furnaces, which brings high temperature risks, uneven feeding volume and low efficiency.
Our matched automatic charging trolley completely optimizes this working procedure:
- The feeding cart runs stably on the fixed track, automatically transports steel scrap into the furnace cavity, no worker needs to stand near the high-temperature furnace mouth.
- Program-controlled vibration feeding ensures uniform feeding speed, avoids furnace lining impact caused by bulk scrap dumping, greatly extending the service life of the furnace body.
- One set of feeding cart can serve 1~2 melting furnaces, reduce 2 feeding workers for each production line, cutting labor cost continuously.
Real Molten Iron Pouring Scene: Stable Melting & Excellent Casting Quality
After automatic feeding and rapid heating, the induction furnace steadily melts scrap iron into qualified molten iron.
We recorded the whole pouring process of molten iron tilting out of the furnace:
- Constant temperature control within ±5℃ guarantees uniform composition of molten iron, effectively reducing casting defects such as pores and cracks.
- Hydraulic tilting structure makes molten iron outflow smooth and controllable, no splashing, improving workshop safety greatly.
- Compared with cupola furnaces, our IGBT induction furnace saves around 30% electricity consumption per ton of molten iron, bringing obvious profit growth for foundry owners.
Feedback From Our Foundry Client
After running our complete melting system for 2 months, the factory manager shared practical data with us:
✅ Daily output increased from 18 tons molten iron to 27 tons, production capacity improved by 50%
✅ Monthly electricity expense dropped by nearly 28%
✅ Manual feeding workers reduced from 3 people to 1 operator only
✅ Casting finished product yield raised from 89% to 97.2%
This is exactly what we focus on: not only selling melting furnaces, but delivering labor-saving, energy-saving, high-yield whole foundry melting solutions for metal casting factories worldwide.
