Horizontal Continuous Casting plants for bars, tubes and profiles in non-ferrous metals
Product Information
WERTLI’s Horizontal continuous casters for bars, tubes and profiles are used world-wide in many important applications to produce a large variety of high quality wear alloys for machining, of the following metals:
- Brasses CuZn30 to CuZn40
- Leaded brasses CuZn40Pb and various others
- High tensile brasses CuZnAIPb and others
- Tin bronzes CuSn and CuSnPb
- Red brasses CuSnZnPb
- Aluminium bronzes CuAIFeMnNi
- Brazing alloys
- and many other popular copper alloys
For this type of application the equipment design must provide maximum flexibility to rapid changes of sizes and alloys. These casters are equipped with induction heated holding furnaces, strand extraction machines with high precision drives with PC CAST 3000 TS control system with data printing and remote servicing link. Travelling band saws and discharge systems for the cut-to-length strands follow in line. Devices for rapid die cooler change are essential with such casters.
