Apart from the furnace with active cooling system, the scope of delivery also included machinery for charging and discharging the ingots, as well as a gantry crane and a mobile roller table as a connection to the existing rolling mill feed table.
Otto Junker technology is efficient when it comes to even temperature distribution, energy consumption and automation. High convection technology ensures fast heating and cooling with short cycle times and low energy consumption.
Otto Junker’s skid system integrated into this furnace has been tried and tested over many years and is virtually maintenance-free. Used to transport the ingots one by one through the furnace, it is made of a number of cast parts manufactured in Otto Junker‘s own stainless steel foundry.
Logan Aluminum Inc. is one of the world‘s leading manufacturers of flat rolled aluminium sheet, a product that is primarily destined for use in the beverage market. In order to expand production, the company now operates the largest ingot furnace Otto Junker GmbH has supplied in its entire history.
