A Foundry Furnace is a high-temperature furnace used in foundries to melt metal for casting into molds. These furnaces must handle large volumes, maintain consistent temperatures, and work with various metal types like cast iron, steel, aluminum, bronze, and more.
Types of Foundry Furnaces
  1. Cupola Furnace
    • A tall, cylindrical furnace used mainly for melting cast iron.
    • Fueled by coke (like coal).
  2. Induction Furnace
    • Comes in coreless and channel types.
    • Low emissions, great temp control.
  3. Electric Arc Furnace (EAF)
    • Common in steel foundries and recycling.
    • Massive capacity (tons at a time), very efficient.
  4. Rotary Furnace
    • Great for melting mixed scrap or dross.
    • High heat transfer and fast cycle times.


Features of Foundry Furnaces
  • Refractory lining: Withstands high heat and protects the shell.
  • Charging system: Loads scrap or ingots into the furnace.
  • Pouring mechanism: Manual, tilting, or automated.
  • Exhaust system: Handles fumes and dust.
  • Control system: Regulates temperature, power, and time.
Applications of Foundry Furnaces
  • Automotive parts (engine blocks, pistons)
  • Machine components
  • Tooling and dies
  • Art and sculpture casting
  • Aerospace and defense components
