PSA invests further in more efficient aluminium melting operation

In March 2009, PSA PEUGEOT CITROEN put the third melting and holding furnace from StrikoWestofen GmbH into operation in its plant in Charleville Mézières, France. The StrikoMelter® shaft melting furnace, type WHS-T, has a melting capability of 5,000 kg aluminum per hour and features a holding bath of 10 tons. Energy consumption below 600 kW/h for melting and heating-up of each ton of aluminum to target temperature of 720 °C was contractually guaranteed. The new furnace replaces two older units, which at that time had not been supplied by StrikoWestofen.

In-House Recycling of Aluminum-Chips in Foundries

Al Chip Melting with the StrikoMelter®

For the first time in history a metal yield of 98% has been achieved in a foundry with a StrikoMelter® during in-house recycling of Al chips.
The pre-dried Al chips are fed into the side pocket of the StrikoMelter® and are drawn homogenously under the surface of the metal bath. There, they are melted under airtight conditions. For a maximum metal yield StrikoWestofen uses the Metaullics system.

A high profitability is guaranteed which can be increased further by an optimization of the chip pre-treatment.

As an alternative to the ChipMelter which is exclusively used with chip melting StrikoWestofen also offers, depending on the customer’s demand, the CombiMelter which incorporates comprises the ETAmax® shaft furmace for melting ingots and returns. This results in a very low energy demand due to the combined use of waste heat.
