Table of energy consumptions minimum melt

This technique can be applied on any rotary furnace and in the preheating of pouring ladles. Oxybumers do not find implementation in non-ferrous foundries, although they are used e.g. in secondary copper smelting. 

Optimisation of furnace operation and to increase melting efficiency. 

This technique finds wide application in ferrous foundries using rotary furnaces. 

5 Selection of cupola vs. induction or rotary furnace for cast iron melting 

Given the fact that various melting techniques show overlapping fields of application, a basic technique is the selection of the melting technology. In this selection the decisive criteria include
