The circulation effect from Altek’s side-mounted EMS is the best industry, utilising flexible frequency and power control combined with quick-switching flow direction to guarantee temperature and chemical homogenisation throughout the entire bath. The circulation of molten metal improves the melt rate, and therefore productivity of the furnace, whilst also significantly reducing energy consumption through improvement of heat transfer.
