What's the difference between crucible furnace and non crucible furnace in die casting industry?
From the way of heating, the crucible furnace has gas, fuel, electricity, coal, coke and so on. The life of the furnace crucible depends on the material.
The crucible furnace, as the name suggests, is a furnace with a crucible. There are cast iron crucibles, cast steel crucibles, some alloy steel crucibles, graphite crucibles, clay crucibles and carborundum crucibles from the crucible material.
The stove is not without crucible furnace crucible said above, the molten pool is built by the whole plate, high aluminum refractory castable, heating with resistance wire, silicon carbide, top mounted combustion heating machine, dipping type silicon carbide rod. The furnace has a life expectancy of about 3 or 5 years.
