Recycling - Aluminum Chip Melting System
Coriolis® Chip Melting and Circulation System in an Aluminum Reverb Furnace
The Coriolis® Chip Melting System is a continuous scrap submergence system with the added benefit of forced circulation. The attached pump generates a strong vortex, coating and submerging aluminum chips in the metal bath, allowing for easily automated furnace filling.
Vortex Melting Features, Benefits, & Capabilities
Patented dual-volute design maximizes melt rate
Proper balance between melt and circulation flow
Standard and customized solution for every size of reverberatory furnace
Only available from High Temperature Systems
Powerful Vortex
Our Coriolis® System designs are carefully optimized to generate a strong vortex characterized by tall, steep uniform sides and fast rotation and high fluid shear. These characteristics maximize the speed at which scrap is incorporated and submerged, radically reducing burn-off and dross generation. The fast rotation and fluid shear quickly distribute the scrap over a larger surface to minimize clumping caused by slower vortex speeds.
Self-aligning Pump Mount Streamlines Pump Maintenance
Besides the dual-volute pump, there are several patents covering the melt system with respect to the vortex bowl design that enables balanced melting and circulation. The Coriolis® Chip Melting System also includes a self-aligning pump mount that ensures that the pump aligns with the ceramic vortex bowl after being serviced. The mount takes the guesswork out of routine maintenance and reduces downtime.
