Range and Applications of Aluminum Smelter Furnace Dross Skim Blades & Stirrers

FURNACE TENDING TOOLS:

Range and application of Aluminum Smelter Furnace Dross Skim Blades & Stirrers:

Specially designed skim blades and stirrers for use in aluminum melting furnaces. Made from our own specially developed materials that are resistant to high temperatures and erosion. One end is connected to a long rod that is resistant to high temperature and corrosion by means of a fixing bolt, and the other end is fixed to the forklift. The whole dross blades & stirrers work is very lightweight, convenient and durable.

Compared with other tools, the service life of SMI tools can be extended by more than 5 times. Iron contamination is significantly reduced to assist in the production of the best grade of aluminum. When the dross blades reaches the end of its service life, it is not necessary to simply replace the blade at the top rather than replacing the entire kit.
In addition, this combination of materials and design is key to reducing the number of agitators required, thereby reducing production, maintenance and replacement costs.

SMI’s skim blades and stirrers are currently in operation in some of the world’s largest aluminum plants.
Furnace tending tools of SMI including Stirring tool and Skimming tool. Both tools are designed to make switching of the blades easy, with a low buying price for the tools it provides a great reduction of TCO for the end customers. SMI Skimming and mixing tools have been proven and widely used on a wide range of vehicles (wheel loaders, FTVs, Glama vehicles, forklifts and other vehicles).

Gama y aplicación de cuchillas y agitadores de escoria de horno de fundición de aluminio:

Cuchillas y agitadores especialmente diseñados para su uso en hornos de fundición de aluminio. Fabricado con materiales propios especialmente desarrollados que son resistentes a las altas temperaturas y a la erosión. Un extremo está conectado a una varilla larga que es resistente a altas temperaturas y corrosión por medio de un perno de fijación, y el otro extremo se fija a la carretilla elevadora. Todo el trabajo de las cuchillas de escoria y los agitadores es muy ligero, conveniente y duradero.

En comparación con otras herramientas, la vida útil de las herramientas SMI se puede extender más de 5 veces. La contaminación por hierro se reduce significativamente para ayudar en la producción de aluminio de la mejor calidad. Cuando las escorias llegan al final de su vida útil, no es necesario simplemente reemplazar la cuchilla en la parte superior en lugar de reemplazar todo el kit.
Además, esta combinación de materiales y diseño es clave para reducir el número de agitadores necesarios, reduciendo así los costes de producción, mantenimiento y sustitución.

Las cuchillas y agitadores de SMI están actualmente en funcionamiento en algunas de las plantas de aluminio más grandes del mundo.
Las herramientas de desnatado y mezcla han sido probadas y ampliamente utilizadas en una amplia gama de vehículos (cargadoras de ruedas, FTV, vehículos Glama, y carretillas elevadoras).

Anode Steel Yoke


Definition:Anode Steel Yoke for aluminum industry
Generally, the method to get primary aluminum is electrolysis of aluminum oxide. The anode steel yoke is a necessary component of the electrolysis device. Usually the anode yoke consists of beam and pawl. The anode yoke is fixed with anode block and the main function is conducting between the block and the solution of aluminum oxide. Through the huge current, the anode block will turn into carbon dioxide and the solution will turn into pure aluminum. The process will generate high temperate around 950℃ ~ 970℃.

Features:
Because the electrolysis process is in high temperate and the anode block scrap in need of remove from the anode, the anode yokes suffer the continuous loss. The anode yokes are consumable.

SMI anode steel yokes have features as below that could reduce the cost of production of aluminum.
1. Can be used repeatedly
2. Stable structure
3. Stable electrical conductivity
4. High security

Definición:
Generalmente, el método para obtener aluminio primario es la electrólisis del óxido de aluminio. El yugo del ánodo es un componente necesario del dispositivo de electrólisis. Por lo general, el yugo del ánodo consta de una viga y un trinquete. El yugo del ánodo se fija con un bloque de ánodo y la función principal es conducir entre el bloque y la solución de óxido de aluminio. A través de la enorme corriente, el bloque del ánodo se convertirá en dióxido de carbono y la solución se convertirá en aluminio puro. El proceso generará una alta temperatura de alrededor de 950 °C ~ 970 °C.

Funciones:
Debido a que el proceso de electrólisis es de alta temperatura y la chatarra del bloque del ánodo necesita ser eliminada del ánodo, los yugos del ánodo sufren una pérdida continua. Los yugos del ánodo son consumibles.

Los yugos de ánodo SMI tienen las características que se indican a continuación que podrían reducir el costo de producción de aluminio.
1. Se puede utilizar repetidamente
2. Estructura estable
3. Conductividad eléctrica estable
4. Alta seguridad

The grapple is made of high-quality 310S heat-resistant steel castings, which maintain excellent stability in high-temperature environments, ensuring that the grapple can operate stably in continuously high operating environments.

310S heat-resistant steel castings not only have excellent high temperature resistance, but also have excellent corrosion resistance. In the production process of electrolytic aluminum, due to the harsh environment such as strong acid and alkali, the corrosion resistance of the equipment is extremely high. The 310S heat-resistant steel castings used in ZG35Cr25Ni20 electrolytic aluminum slag grabber just meet this demand, which can operate stably for a long time in harsh environments, greatly improving production efficiency and service life of equipment.

In addition, the design of ZG35Cr25Ni20 electrolytic aluminum slag grabber also fully considers the actual use needs. Its unique structural design and optimized mechanical properties make the grab more stable and efficient when grabbing and handling slag. At the same time, its high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance also make the grab not easy to be damaged during long-term use, which greatly reduces the maintenance cost of the equipment.

In general, ZG35Cr25Ni20 electrolytic aluminum slag grabber has become a leader in the electrolytic aluminum industry with its high-temperature, corrosion-resistant 310S heat-resistant steel castings and optimized structural design. Its excellent performance not only improves production efficiency, but also reduces maintenance costs, providing strong support for the sustainable development of electrolytic aluminum enterprises.
