Safety is at the forefront of<br />
practically all aluminium<br />
casthouses in the world.<br />
Whenever rust, moisture,<br />
lime (leached from concrete<br />
in the pit) and molten<br />
aluminium come into<br />
close contact, then all the<br />
hazardous conditions exist<br />
for a destructive molten<br />
metal explosion. It is<br />
imperative to monitor the<br />
steel casting equipment and<br />
casting machines for signs of<br />
rust and exposure. <strong>Casting</strong><br />
pits should be inspected periodically and<br />
recoated as needed. <strong>Pyrotek</strong> offers Wise Chem<br />
pyrotek<br />
supplement<br />
safety coatings, which have been tested and is<br />
recognised by the Aluminium Association as<br />
an effective safety coating (see Figure 25).<br />
COnCLUSiOn<br />
To summarize, in addition to maximizing<br />
casting parameters, the selection of the right<br />
system of consumables can have a major<br />
impact on a plants ability to consistently cast<br />
good quality billet. <strong>Pyrotek</strong> does not offer<br />
one single product, but has several integrated<br />
materials to ensure its customer’s billet<br />
casting process is optimized to its maximum<br />
potential. <strong>Pyrotek</strong> also provides a unique level<br />
of worldwide, in-the-plant technical support<br />
and process expertise. This combination of<br />
technical support/expertise and consistent<br />
local service enables <strong>Pyrotek</strong> customers to<br />
make the correct material selections and<br />
employ them properly, thereby deriving the<br />
best potential performances from whichever<br />
casting technology they choose to employ.<br />
