DEGASSING PLANT

The refining is realized by introduction, in molten alloy, of particular pre-loaded capsules containing flux necessary for customer request. 
These capsules are of aluminium, hermetically sealed, can contain salts, refining substances, sodium or mix of different elements for every metallurgic requirement. This is the peculiarity of this plant: using right expedients during lance building and a complex program rotation management, it can sink the capsule on the bottom of landle, before the aluminium can melts itself and disperses its contained homogenously and rationally in the low/central zone of bath. 
The immediate and homogenous dispersion of contained elements is realized with great efficiency by centrifugal force generated by lance rotation. The insertion of the capsule is semiautomatic : if set in the work cycle, the control program of the machines creates the optimal conditions for the insertion of the capsule and by an coustic signal warns the operators that it’s time to insert the capsule; the operator should be limited at this point to insert the capsule into the orifice. All the process parameters, as quantity and kind of capsules, times and rotation speed are completely programmable; you have 99 working programs so to process different alloys and to work in different conditions. 

The advantages of this system can be translated into:

• High flexibility, due to the possibility of dosing different products, distributed in the form of capsules easily identifiableand manageable.
• Elimination of problems related to the diffusion of salts coaxially to the lance, as the merger of these that hopelessly clogged the lance, for the same reason you can use chemicals products with low melting point, which have an immediate dissemination to domestic league.
• Handling and storage of the same, as pre-packaged in sealed containers do not require special attention, are easy and economical to handle and store.

CONSTRUCTIVE PARTICULARS

The plant is realized for heavy use in foundry: both of electric and pneumatic plants are closed in a dedicated hermetical and metallic cupboard, to preserve components from aggressive environment present in foundry, in the best way, above the ladle. 
All the flexible tubes used in the plant are provided with inox steel to avoid being damaged by some spots of molten metal. Also the mechanic part is closed inside a carter for safety and for protecting from external elements.
All the mechanic parts are zinced for further protection against corrosion. All the inferior part of plant is full by 100 mm of insulator, to isolate mechanic and engineering parts from heat, it realizes a half closing when the plant is set down on ladle or furnace.
