The mechanical characteristic of iron obtained with the ALJET™ rotary furnace manufactured by SOGEMI are as good as or better than those obtained with a cupola furnace.

You can operate oxygen-fuel rotary furnaces if your foundry is manufacturing 1,000 to 50,000 tons of gray or ductile iron per year, as a replacement for cupola furnaces or as additional equipment for an induction furnace.

Advantages :
- flexibility of use
- short melting time
- different grades of iron from one melt to another
- iron availability can adapt to the needs of the molding shop
- compliance with pollution control standards
- small-size dust filtration system due to dramatic reduction of volume of exhaust gas thanks to oxygen combustion
- CO and NOX always lower than the standard
- negligible SO2
- low capital investment
- excellent metallurgical quality
- easy training : for personnel switching from cupola to rotary furnace
- automatic operating cycle
- low maintenance
