Crucible furnaces are essential tools for melting and casting metals with low melting points, such as brass, bronze, and aluminum.
There are three main types of crucible furnaces: stationary, tilting, and movable.
3 Key Types of Crucible Furnaces Explained
1. Stationary Crucible Furnaces
Stationary crucible furnaces are fixed in place and cannot be tilted or moved.
They are commonly used in small-scale projects and traditional settings.
These furnaces typically have a refractory crucible where the material to be heated is placed.
Heat is generated either through a gas burner or electric heating elements.
2. Tilting Crucible Furnaces
Tilting crucible furnaces have the ability to tilt the crucible, allowing for easy pouring of the molten metal.
They are commonly used in industrial applications.
These furnaces also have a refractory crucible and use gas-fired burners or electric heating elements for heating.
3. Movable Crucible Furnaces
Movable crucible furnaces are designed to be easily moved or transported.
They are often used in situations where mobility is required, such as in remote locations or on construction sites.
Movable crucible furnaces can have either a stationary or tilting design.
