Gas-Fired, for Melting and Holding
Hydraulic system with flame resistant hydraulic fluid
Two-stage burner, mounted on furnace frame
The gas-fired or oil-heated tilting furnaces in the KB product lines provide for high melting performance, making them ideal for melting operations. The use of high-quality insulation materials results in very low energy
consumption. The two-stage burner can be configured for either gas or oil operation. Designed with an exhaust vent over the crucible edge, these tilting furnaces achieve very high melting rates and optimum energy efficiency.
Models KB ../12 reach a max. furnace temperature of 1200 °C resulting in melting temperatures of up to 1050 °C. These tilting furnaces are mainly used for aluminum and Zinc alloys.
Models KB ../14 reach a max. furnace temperature of 1400 °C resulting in melting temperatures of up to 1250 °C. These tilting furnaces are mainly used for copper alloys in small foundries.
