Yihui Casting continuous casting technology, with its advantages of high efficiency, energy saving, and high yield, has become the core production process in the fields of precious metal and non-ferrous metal processing. The continuous casting machine is the key to the implementation of the technology. Yihui has organized this special training, starting from the disassembly of equipment structure and combining production cases to explain the workflow and principle points, helping practitioners in equipment operation, maintenance, and process optimization to strengthen their professional foundation and solve practical problems. Next, let's embark on a learning journey!

Working principle of continuous casting machine

Having economic practicality and excellent performance is the first choice for the precious metal manufacturing industry.

The whole machine has high work efficiency, low material loss, and flexible operation mode, allowing you to get the casting material you want as quickly as possible.

1. Adopt inert gas protection melting to prevent metal oxidation, and use power traction casting method.

2. Casting high-density gold, K gold, silver and other precious metal sheets, round bars, square bars, round tubes and other specifications of products in a short period of time.

3. The downward casting method controls the internal sand holes of the finished product to the lowest limit, and the finished product fully meets the requirements of deep processing.

4. Efficient and unique stirring heating, which dissolves metals more evenly in color; Increased mold capacity and improved casting speed.

Structure of continuous casting machine

A comprehensive body safety self inspection system to create excellent products for you.

Continuous casting machine is used to melt precious metals such as gold, silver, copper, etc., and directly cast them into shapes according to production requirements (pipes, sheets, wires, etc.) through continuous cooling and solidification processes. This technology achieves continuous production of precious metals through automated production lines, significantly improving work efficiency, reducing energy consumption, and simplifying production processes.

Operation guide for continuous casting machine.

1. Equipment inspection

Check if the cooling water system is unobstructed, and if the water temperature, pressure, and quality meet the requirements;

Check whether the upper and lower molds match, whether the roller tube, guide rod head, and lubrication system are intact;

Check that the electronic control system, sensors, limit switches, and alarm devices are functioning properly;

2. Raw material preparation

Confirm that the metal composition and temperature meet the process requirements;

Prepare combustion supporting materials;

3. Safety confirmation

Operators should wear protective equipment (heat-resistant clothing, protective goggles, protective shoes, safety helmets, etc.);

Confirm that the emergency stop button and safety barrier are in normal condition;

4. Startup and casting process control

startup sequence

Open the cooling water system, confirm the flow rate and water temperature are normal

Activate the lead rod device, send the lead rod head to the bottom of the upper mold and seal it

Activate the roller conveyor auxiliary equipment

5. Metal liquid pouring

Control the pouring temperature and pouring speed to avoid overcooling or overheating;

Observe the height of the metal liquid surface, maintain stability, and prevent spillage;

6. Casting process monitoring

Real time monitoring of the temperature of the lower mold crystallization, effluent temperature, and molten metal temperature;

Observe the surface quality of castings (cracks, inclusions, etc.);

Check the speed of the guide rod and the pressure of the roller conveyor to ensure smooth transportation of the castings;

7. Shutdown and Maintenance

Normal shutdown

Stop pouring the molten metal and continue cooling with water until the casting completely leaves the crystallizer;

Reduce the speed of the ingot and stop the roller conveyor equipment;

Turn off the lubrication system and keep the cooling water running for a period of time until the equipment cools down to 100 degrees;

8. Emergency stop

In case of water leakage, liquid leakage, abnormal equipment vibration, rapid temperature rise, etc., immediately press the emergency stop button;

Cut off the supply of molten metal to ensure the safe evacuation of personnel.

9. Daily maintenance

Clean up the residue on the inner walls of the upper and lower molds, and check for wear and tear;

Check whether the cooling water pipeline is blocked or leaking;

Lubricate all transmission components and tighten loose bolts;

Record equipment operating parameters and abnormal situations, and report them in a timely manner;

The continuous casting machine training has come to a successful conclusion. Thank you to our partners at Yihui for their full dedication! From structural disassembly to principle analysis, from theoretical analysis to case studies, we have solidified our technical foundation. As Yihui people who adhere to the principle of "leading technology and striving for learning", what we have learned is not only a practical guide, but also a starting point for innovation. We look forward to everyone applying what they have learned, transforming their technological advantages into core competitiveness, and building a reputation for Yihui with the spirit of craftsmanship! In the future, we will continue to build learning platforms and work together with everyone to achieve win-win development!

Yihui Casting Technology Co., Ltd. was established in 2003. After more than 20 years of accumulation, Yihui has now developed into a national high-tech enterprise that integrates research and development, production, sales, consulting, installation, and training of lost wax casting equipment, and provides one-stop solutions for metal casting. Yihui Casting Technology products include metal casting equipment, casting wax, graphite products, quartz products, etc., which are exported to Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, America and other regions. The company has its own R&D team, which independently develops and produces automated vacuum die-casting machines, G20 vacuum bead scattering machines, and intelligent system D3 vacuum pressure casting machines, breaking the industry's long-standing dependence on imported high-performance jewelry equipment.
