Molten Metal

Molten Metal System

Systems that deal with Molten Metal offer three types of products. They offer a variety of crucibles, foundry products, and furnaces. Thermometrics unique advantage of designing and manufacturing both furnace and crucible means that two work together to maximize energy efficiency and to prolong crucible life.

Crucibles-

A crucible is a refractory container used for metal, glass, and pigment production as well as a number of modern laboratory processes, which can withstand temperatures high enough to melt or otherwise alter its contents. Historically, they have usually been made of clay, but they can be made of any material with a higher temperature resistance than the substances they are designed to hold.

Foundry

A foundry is a factory that produces metal castings. Metals are cast into shapes by melting them into a liquid, pouring the metal in a mold, and removing the mold material or casting after the metal has solidified as it cools. The most common metals processed are aluminum and cast iron. However, other metals, such as steel, magnesium, copper, tin, and zinc, are also used to produce castings in foundries.

Metal Furnace

A furnace is a major appliance that is permanently installed to provide heat to an interior space through intermediary fluid movement, which may be air, steam, or hot water. The most common fuel; source for modern furnaces in the United States is natural gas; other common fuel sources include LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), fuel oil, coal or wood. In some cases electrical induction heating is used as the source of heat, especially where the cost of electricity is low.

What Our Clients Say?

Much of the near-term product opportunities are targeted toward lowering manufacturing or maintenance costs in industrial/chemical processing. Metals and alloys are extensively used in these industries over a range of temperatures and harsh environments. Surface modifications of these substrates will enable extended lifetimes, better performance, and in some cases, even improve the quality of the final product. Corrosion or oxidation of these parts presents a major problem for industries requiring frequent replacement of parts and increasing production costs due to downtime and other related factors. Due to the thin, dense, and hermetic nature of Thermoblak, it can be implemented readily with highly effective protection.
