The OTTO JUNKER pouring furnace, type RGD, is made up of the cylindrical furnace vessel with siphon-like filling gate and pouring spout and stopper mechanism. The easily replaceable inductor is flange-mounted to the side or bottom depending on specific requirements. The easily replaceable inductor is attached either to the side in inclined position or to the bottom (spheroidal graphite iron).
Filling gate and pouring spout can be arranged at an angle of 90° or 180° to each other.The furnace vessel can be tilted hydraulically about the filling gate for emptying. For approach to varying positions of the mould sprue cup, the base frame of the furnace is mounted on a double carriage for movement along and across the mould line.
Pouring into the mould takes place with constant metal level by pressurization control using the pouring stopper-nozzle principle.
| Technical features/applications | Economical advantages |
|---|---|
| Availability of ready-to-cast iron on the mould line | Reduced rate of rejects |
| Holding of molten iron at constant pouring temperature | No residual iron and improved ladle economy |
| Slag-free pouring of iron (stopper-nozzle principle) | Increased production thanks to better utilization of moulding machine |
| Dosing of the iron entering the mould | Casting operation is made independent of the melting shop |
| Automation of the pouring process (Teach-In and laser control) | Savings in labour cost |
| Easing the job of the operating personnel | Improvement of workplace conditions |
| Improvement of metal quality |
