INDUCTOTHERM'S ACUTRAK® OFFERS FASTER, CLEANER
AND MORE EFFICIENT MELTING OF ALUMINUM
TO PRODUCE HIGH QUALITY METAL

Acutrak® Furnace:

  • Acutrak® delivers energy directly to the crucible and molten metal,
    making the Acutrak
    ® more efficient than any furnace on the market today.
  • Furnace energy losses are so low that water cooling systems have become unnecessary.
    All components are air-cooled.
  • The automatic control system raises the metal temperature to the set point, automatically reducing to hold power. Holding energy cost is just pennies per hour.
  • Applies electrical energy directly into the crucible and molten metal.
    High power density (150 kW/ton) assures quick melting.
  • Applies electrical energy directly into the crucible and molten metal,
    eliminating the need for fragile electrical filaments and fuel burners.
  • Clean induction technology guarantees metal of exceptional purity and at the correct temperature. Metal loss is minimal.
  • Furnaces are compact and require minimal effort to install: Place - Connect - Run.
  • The metal is heated evenly and to precise temperature automatically with minimal overshoot.
  • The rugged construction of Acutrak® assures high reliability. A crucible with molten metal is the only hot component in the entire system.
  • Acutrak® offers large melt diameter for easy ladling and charging.


IMPORTANT:

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) must be worn
by anyone in proximity to molten metal.
