SGT Series – Aluminium Shaft Furnace

The SGT Series shaft furnaces are fully automatic, two-chamber systems designed for efficient melting and holding of aluminum. These furnaces offer melting capacities from 500 kg/h to 3,000 kg/h and holding capacities ranging from 1,500 kg to 12,000 kg of liquid aluminum. Built with a rugged steel chassis and lined with premium refractory materials, they ensure long service life and reliable thermal performance.

The hydraulic tilting system allows for safe and easy metal discharge, while a flat flame burner in the holding section minimizes direct flame contact, reducing metal oxidation and improving final product quality. Separate burner systems for melting and holding optimize energy efficiency and process control. A fully automated charging system supports continuous operation and consistent throughput.

Thanks to their ergonomic design, low energy consumption, and minimal maintenance requirements, SGT shaft furnaces are ideal for aluminum casting operations seeking precision, durability, and automation.
