20T Rotary Tilting Furnace For Copper Scrap Melting

The rotary tilting furnace for copper scrap melting is a premium fire-refining solution designed for modern copper recycling plants. By combining a rotating round furnace body with precision hydraulic tilting technology, this system optimizes heat transfer and simplifies the production of high-quality anodes required for the electrorefining of scrap copper.

Our rotary tilting furnace is engineered for flexibility, allowing small and medium-sized plants to process varying grades of scrap with maximum efficiency and safety.

1. Rotating Round Furnace Body

The furnace features a robust steel shell with a circular hearth design. Unlike fixed units, this rotary tilting furnace can rotate back and forth on its support idlers, ensuring:

• Uniform Heat Distribution: The burner, installed at the end side, provides consistent temperatures throughout the charge.
• Rapid Melting Cycles: Cold solid materials can be completely melted in just 3–4 hours.
• Easy Charging: A continuous charging port allows for the efficient feeding of scrap and additives.

2. Precision Hydraulic Tilting & Safety

The furnace is driven by high-performance hydraulic cylinders for smooth actuation.

• Controlled Pouring: The tilting angle (up to ≤70°) allows operators to precisely adjust the speed of molten copper outflow.
• Fail-Safe Reset: The hydraulic station includes an air storage device that automatically resets the furnace to a horizontal position during a power failure, preventing dangerous copper run-out.

3. Smart PLC Combustion System

Equipped with a PLC-based industrial computer interface, the combustion system ensures a constant temperature and provides real-time operating data. This replaces traditional manual switches, offering clear alarm information and precise monitoring of the smelting environment.

Our rotary tilting furnace for copper scrap melting serves as the critical first step in high-purity copper production. Watch the video below to see the furnace in action, followed by the final electrorefining of scrap copper process.

Q1: Why is the "Rotary" design better for scrap copper?

A: The rotating round furnace body improves material distribution and heat reflection. This results in a faster melting cycle and higher thermal efficiency compared to stationary rectangular furnaces.

Q2: How does the furnace handle oxidation and reduction?

A: Oxidation is performed by blowing compressed air into the furnace. For the reduction stage, the system can be switched to feed furnace oil or gas via a specialized connector.

Q3: Can the furnace handle different fuel types?

A: Yes. While the standard design uses furnace oil, the combustion system can be customized for Natural Gas (NG), LPG, or Diesel based on your local energy costs.
