Plant & Infrastructure

01 / RAW MATERIAL

Raw Material Yard & Segregation

Our covered yard receives aluminium alloy wheel scrap, engine and gearbox casting scrap and other aluminium scrap. Material is segregated by type and alloy family before charging, which is the first and most important step in controlling final chemistry.

• Separate stacks for wheel, casting and mixed scrap
• Removal of iron, rubber and foreign material
• Feed conveyor for controlled charging

02 / MELTING

Aluminium Melting Furnace

Scrap is charged into our heavy-duty melting furnace with a chain-operated lifting door. The furnace body is hydraulically tilted for controlled tapping of molten metal, giving our team full control over each heat.

• Robust steel-framed, refractory-lined furnace
• Hydraulic tilting for safe, controlled tapping
• Trained crew with full PPE on the melt floor

03 / ENVIRONMENT

Fume Extraction & Cyclone System

A ducted fume extraction system with cyclone separator captures fumes and dust from the furnace, keeping the shop floor cleaner and safer for our people and reducing emissions to the surroundings.

• Ducted extraction directly from the furnace hood
• Cyclone separator for dust collection
• Recycling aluminium saves energy versus primary metal

04 / CASTING

Launder & Ingot Casting Machine

Molten metal flows from the tilting furnace through a refractory-lined launder into our chain-type ingot casting machine. Moving moulds give uniform ingot size and weight with a clean surface, ready for your furnace.

• Continuous chain-mould casting
• Uniform ingot shape for easy handling and charging
• Reduced dross and oxide inclusion

05 / LABORATORY

In-house Spectro Lab

Our quality lab runs a VAS Silver optical emission spectrometer for fast, accurate elemental analysis of aluminium. Samples are tested during melting and before casting, so any correction is made while the metal is still in the furnace.
