Rotary Melting Furnaces

The Wesman Engineering Co offers Rotary Melting Furnaces that are highly efficient melting units. The furnace is designed primarily to melt iron but can also melt aluminium, copper, copper alloys, etc. When melting non-ferrous metals, the batch capacity as well as combustion system will change. Star features include: rugged construction; proven design with energy efficient features; suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous melting; easy to operate and maintain; fitted with Wesman’s highly acclaimed combustion equipment; excellent fuel economy; and countrywide after-sales service. The furnace consists of a cylindrical shell fitted with two steel tyres supported on rollers mounted on a fabricated steel frame. The shell has two spouts and two lifting trunions and is rotated by friction between the tyre and rollers, which are driven by a motor via a worm reduction gear. Manual drive provision is also a standard feature. A Wesman low air pressure burner capable of operation with preheated air is fitted. The burner can fire HSD, LDO, furnace oil or LSHS. Gas firing options are also offered. A cylindrical radiation-type recuperator utilising the waste products of combustion is provided to heat the combustion air. The recuperator is mounted either on a fabricated supporting structure or on a brick-lined chamber. It receives the products of combustion from the furnace through a waste gas bend trolley. The furnace is charged by removing the trolley. Optional accessories: oil service tank, outflow heater, semi-rotary hand pump, motor starter, fume extraction unit, lining material, and ramming fixtures.
