As an Advanced Materials Company, Morgan constantly upgrades its products to deliver more value to its customers. Morgan's Motel Metal Systems business is proud to introduce its latest range of next generation crucibles for Aluminium holding application – VAluStar™.
Backed by Morgan’s expertise and experience of over 160 years in manufacturing crucibles for nonferrous metals, VAluStar™ crucibles are highly resistant to oxidation at low temperatures, thanks to Morgan’s proprietary glazes. These crucibles are particularly best suited for holding Aluminium and Aluminium alloys in electric resistance furnaces.
Morgan Advanced Materials, world leaders in ceramic and carbon materials science and engineering, is descending on GIFA with a range of its innovative high-performance materials.
GIFA is one of the largest international exhibitions for foundry and metallurgy technology, taking place once every four years in Germany. This year, Morgan is exhibiting with three of its key global businesses, including its Molten Metal System, Thermal Ceramics, and Haldenwanger® teams. Each business will have a range of high-performance materials on show to help with linings for furnaces, kilns, crucibles and more.
A large Indian pencil manufacturer has reduced its graphite-sintering-related costs by nearly a quarter after replacing its existing heat treatment containers (HTCs) with specially-engineered alternatives supplied by Morgan Advanced Materials’ Molten Metal Systems Business.
Foundry owners could be wasting money and operating inefficiently by failing to use an accurate and continuous method of measuring the temperature of molten metals in holding furnaces prior to casting.
A global specialist in crucible and foundry solutions has developed new extra-large crucibles for aluminium casters, to hold very high volumes of molten metal.
As aluminium becomes the material of choice for automotive manufacturing, a global leader in advanced material development and application is helping aluminium casters to improve quality of output and reduce rejections by avoiding metal contamination in the melting and holding process.
Morgan Advanced Materials has published a white paper identifying current trends in primary and secondary aluminium processing, focusing on technology solutions for the global aluminium processing sector.
The consumption of energy is of key importance to the metal casting industry, with most energy expenditure – 55 per cent - occurring during the melting process. However, until now it has been difficult to find data relating to energy use and crucibles, and so to assess the cost of crucible ownership in a way that includes energy savings. That situation has now changed, with a comparative study revealing that Morgan Advanced Materials' Salamander® silicon carbide (SiC) crucible performs particularly well in terms of energy consumption. Furthermore, changes made to the crucible in light of the study mean that the resultant energy-optimised Salamander® SiC may offer very considerable savings to foundries, through its increased energy transfer capability.
Morgan Advanced Materials has launched a new range of stopper rods (monoblock stopper for cast iron applications).
Morgan Advanced Materials has made two new additions to its extensive range of crucible coatings for the foundry sector.
