Yangquan Aluminum Co., Ltd. made new breakthroughs in improvement of alloy rod casting process

Recently, a good news came from the alloy casting company. Under the personal encouragement of the chairman and secretary of the party committee Liang Shu, all the cadre employees of the alloy foundry company actively prepared and successfully used pure silicon instead of the middle alloy and the quick-melting silicon for alloy rod production. The use of this technology can save costs of 290,000 yuan a year, marking the company's production of alloy rods to a new level.

Former alloy casting companies used intermediate silicon-aluminum-alloy cast alloy rods to use three or four days per month to cast master alloys. Based on 70 tons of output per day, alloy foundry companies would reduce their output by 200-300 tons. The use of pure silicon cast alloy rods reduces the overall time and equipment occupation. At the same time, the cost per ton of pure silicon is about 3,000 yuan lower than that of quick-melting silicon. According to the production of 1500 tons of alloy rods per month, the silicon needs to be melted quickly. 8 tons, so that the company can save 24,000 yuan per month, and save about 290,000 yuan for the company in one year.
