Aluminum melting.


Thermtronix[R] offers the latest in energy efficient technology applied to their high performance aluminum melting and holding furnaces. Solid state technology allows modern furnaces to precisely measure the exact amount of energy necessary to melt and maintain metal temperature. Features such as automatic pre-programmed temperature adjustments, automatic demand limiting, continuous monitoring of combustion combustion, rapid chemical reaction of two or more substances with a characteristic liberation of heat and light; it is commonly called burning. The burning of a fuel (e.g., wood, coal, oil, or natural gas) in air is a familiar example of combustion.  gas flow; metal and chamber temperatures all contribute to increased operating efficiency. Additionally, all Thermtronix[R] solid state furnace furnace, enclosed space for the burning of fuel. There are many kinds of furnaces, the type depending upon the fuel and the use to which the heat produced within it is put. Most familiar are the furnaces used in the heating of buildings.  controls include numerous safety features listed to UL Standards of Safety by Underwriters Laboratories Underwriters Laboratories Inc. is a U.S. not-for-profit, privately owned and operated product safety testing and certification organization.
