Precious metal melting furnace is a professional equipment used for melting precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum, palladium, etc. The following is its related introduction:
Working principle
Resistance heating type: generates heat through heating elements
such as resistance wires or resistance strips, converts electrical
energy into thermal energy, and causes precious metals in the
furnace to reach their melting point and melt. This method heats
uniformly and controls the temperature accurately, effectively
reducing the oxidation and loss of precious metals.
Intermediate frequency induction heating type: using intermediate
frequency alternating current to generate an alternating magnetic
field through an induction coil, causing precious metals in the
magnetic field to produce induced current, thereby generating heat
to achieve melting. Its advantages are fast heating speed, high
efficiency, precise temperature control, and minimal thermal
radiation to the environment.
Structural characteristics
Furnace body: It is usually made of materials that are resistant to
high temperatures and corrosion, such as ceramic fibers, corundum,
etc., to ensure structural stability and sealing at high
temperatures and reduce heat loss.
Heating system: Equipped with corresponding heating elements or
induction coils according to different heating methods. Heating
elements need to have good insulation and high temperature
resistance, while induction coils need to have high electromagnetic
induction efficiency.
Temperature control system: high-precision temperature sensors are
used to monitor the temperature inside the furnace in real time,
and the heating power is precisely adjusted through a temperature
controller to ensure that the temperature is controlled within the
set range. Generally, the temperature control accuracy can reach ±
1 ℃ or even higher.
Melting crucible: used to hold precious metals, usually made of
high-temperature resistant materials such as graphite and quartz
that do not undergo chemical reactions with precious metals. The
shape and size of the crucible are determined according to the
specifications and production needs of the melting furnace.
Stirring device: Some precious metal melting furnaces are equipped
with stirring devices, such as electromagnetic stirrers or
mechanical stirrers. The stirring device can evenly mix precious
metal liquids, improve melting quality, and help accelerate heat
transfer and chemical reactions.
Performance advantages
High precision temperature control: capable of meeting the strict
temperature requirements for precious metal melting, ensuring the
purity and quality stability of precious metals. For example, in
the process of gold smelting, precise temperature control can avoid
problems such as impurity mixing or gold oxidation caused by high
or low temperature.
Efficient and energy-saving: The medium frequency induction heating
melting furnace has a higher heating efficiency. Compared with
traditional fuel or gas melting furnaces, it can significantly
reduce energy consumption, shorten melting time, and improve
production efficiency.
Environmentally friendly and clean: Resistance heating and medium
frequency induction heating methods do not produce combustion
exhaust gas during operation, making them environmentally friendly.
Meanwhile, due to the relatively closed heating process, it can
effectively reduce the emission of precious metal dust and improve
the working environment.
High degree of automation: It can be equipped with an automated
control system to achieve automated operations such as feeding,
melting, and discharging, reducing manual intervention, improving
production stability and consistency, and reducing labor intensity
and human error.
