Solutions for the whole metals value chain

DTE’s solutions can be implemented at every process point where molten aluminum is handled: in potrooms; in primary smelters; in casting operations in transfer crucibles, furnaces and launders; in scrap recycling plants, both in remelting and casting furnaces and launders; and for end-user manufacturers who cast parts or products from molten aluminum.

Potroom

Crucible

Furnace

Launder

Potroom

  • Optimize the tapping schedule by knowing the current quality​

  • Prevent unexpected pot failures with analytics​

  • Improve safety by preventing unexpected leaks​

  • Comfortably run pots closer to failure​

  • Reduce the risk of error by next-to-pot analysis​

  • Instant detection of sample contamination​

  • Reduce sampling cost

  • Primary aluminum calibration profile

Crucible

• Fully automated analysis

• Robotic extraction of metal

• Ensure correct routing of material for casthouse

• Optimize furnace charging

• Aluminum Alloys

Furnace

  • Optimize material for batching with live melt dynamics from the furnace​

  • Shorten the batching time to achieve consistent quality and homogeneity ​

  • Increase throughput​ and start casting faster, every time, comfortably within specs

  • Optimize energy efficiency and avoid unnecessarily holding a fully loaded furnace of 900°C metal​

  • Minimize scrap and rework with real-time actionable data

  • Tighten the processing specifications with more datapoints and insight​

  • Improve safety by removing operators from handling molten metal samples​

Launder

• Fully automated analysis

• Aluminum Alloys

• Stationary​
