MELTING AND POURING: AT THE CORE OF EVERY IRON FOUNDRY WORLDWIDE

CAP furnace

The revolutionary CAP – Coreless Automatic Press Pouring – is the only coreless system in the world capable of automatically press-pouring in conjunction with any automatic molding line.

The CAP features an elliptical coil design that enhances duct heating and improves overall electrical efficiency. In this innovative design, the ducts are positioned within the magnetic field of the induction coil, ensuring continuous heating.

This constant, uniform heating allows the pouring cycle to begin at any time without the risk of freezing or slag adhesion. Slag remains fluid, floating above the molten metal, and can be easily removed.

outstanding benefit of the cap

✨ Precise Pouring – Reduced sprue-cups and zero overflowing, for cleaner and more efficient casting. 

⚡ Higher Productivity – No delays in metal supply correspond to an increase in production. 

💡 Energy Efficiency – Lower power consumption and the flexibility to shut down during weekends or longer breaks.

🔄 Operational Flexibility – Capable of remelting frozen metal without complications.

🌡️ Consistent Quality – Uniform bath temperature at all times thanks to induction-heated inlet/outlet ducts.

🧹 Low Maintenance – Self-cleaning ducts through inducted heat minimize downtime.

🔥 Fast Superheating – Rapid temperature increase (60–100 °C/hour) for quicker readiness.

🛡️ Durable Design – Dry-rammed lining ensures long service life and reliability.

✅ Trusted Performance – Guaranteed reliability for pouring 100% ductile iron.

INDUCTION FURNACE

Induction melting furnaces powered by medium frequency (MF) converters with IGBT (Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistor) are devices primarily used for metal melting and other industrial applications that require high temperature levels and precision in thermal control.

The MF IGBT converter is a power supply necessary for the parallel resonant load for the induction heating, and it utilizes a new type of semiconductor device: the IGBT.

The new equipment has been designed to replace the medium-frequency SCR converter (previous technology).

key advantages of induction furnace with igbt technology

Superior Metal Quality
lInduction melting ensures the highest quality of molten metal, as it does not rely on
combustion-based heating sources that can introduce contaminants.

💡 Higher Efficiency
Compared to other melting technologies, induction furnaces offer superior energy efficiency since heat is generated directly within the material to be melted.

🌐 Clean and Environmentally Friendly Process
Induction heating does not involve combustion. Heat is generated by the magnetic
field directly within the metal, eliminating pollutants and avoiding any contamination
from burning materials.

🔄 Full scrap recovery
Induction furnaces allow the recovery and reuse of all metal scrap, as the melt can be
precisely adjusted and corrected during the process.

✅ Precise Temperature Control 
Advanced digital melting control systems enable highly accurate temperature
management, ensuring optimal pouring conditions while minimizing energy losses.
