Reconditioning Furnaces
Reconditioning of StrikoWestofen Furnaces and Foundry Furnaces
FISS supports foundries and die casting companies with the reconditioning, repair and maintenance of melting furnaces, dosing furnaces, crucible furnaces and refractory furnace components. The focus is on professional linings, material selection, drying, repair and recommissioning in the production environment.
Reconditioning for
- StrikoWestofen WESTOMAT dosing furnaces
- StrikoWestofen StrikoMelter melting furnaces
- Nabertherm crucible furnaces
- Filters, pots and pouring troughs
- Furnace lids, doors and refractory components
Refractory technology & furnace service
Professionally repair furnaces and keep them ready for production
Foundry furnaces are exposed to high thermal and mechanical loads in daily operation. Wear on refractory linings, doors, furnace rims, pouring troughs, filters or pots can affect process reliability, energy efficiency and machine availability.
FISS relies on high-quality partnerships, professional competence and effective project management. This allows reconditioning, repair, maintenance, material selection, drying, assembly and recommissioning to be planned cleanly and supported transparently.
Furnace types
Reconditioning for dosing furnaces, melting furnaces and crucible furnaces
Depending on the furnace type, design, refractory lining, thermal load and repair scope can differ. FISS supports individual repairs as well as complete furnace reconditioning projects.
WESTOMAT Dosing Furnaces
Reconditioning of StrikoWestofen WESTOMAT dosing furnaces including lining, insulation, door renewal and furnace rim.
StrikoMelter Melting Furnaces
Complete furnace linings with refractory materials or bricks, formwork production and drying time monitoring.
Crucible Furnaces
Repair and reconditioning of crucible furnaces, for example Nabertherm crucible furnaces with different capacities.
Refractory Components
Production and repair of pouring troughs, filters, pots, wedges, plugs, barriers, furnace lids and doors.
WESTOMAT dosing furnaces
Reconditioning of StrikoWestofen WESTOMAT dosing furnaces
For WESTOMAT dosing furnaces, the reconditioning mainly includes work on refractory lining, insulation, formwork, floor, walls, vaults, door and furnace rim. The aim is a clean technical restoration of the heavily used furnace areas.
Removal of the refractory lining
Laying the insulation and producing formwork
Welding anchors and renewing the door
Concreting the floor, walls and insulating coating
Construction of vaults and drilling holes
Cleaning the furnace rim and painting
StrikoMelter melting furnaces
Complete linings, repairs and refractory products
Complete Furnace Lining
FISS supports material selection, removal of the old lining, renewal with refractory linings or bricks, formwork production for chimneys and burners as well as monitoring of the drying time.
Filters, Pots and Pouring Troughs
Filters, pots and pouring troughs can also be renewed or repaired. For smaller products, drying can be carried out in the workshop up to 450 °C.
Refractory Products by Order
FISS supports pouring troughs, filters, pots, wedges, plugs, barriers, furnace lids and doors.
Repairs and Maintenance
Repairs are possible on casting furnaces, filters, pots, wedges, plugs, barriers, furnace lids and doors.
Project process
From condition assessment to recommissioning
Check Condition
Furnace type, wear pattern, lining, components, location and production requirements are recorded.
Select Materials
FISS supports the selection of suitable refractory materials, linings, bricks or repair components.
Carry Out Reconditioning
Old linings are removed, formwork is produced, components are renewed and refractory work is carried out.
Monitor Drying
Drying time is controlled; smaller products can be dried in the workshop up to 450 °C.
Recommissioning
Experienced employees support the project through acceptance and renewed production readiness.
Full service
Proven competence and transparent project handling
Experienced employees and effective project management support all projects from order acceptance to recommissioning. FISS stands for smooth, personal and transparent cooperation and keeps customers regularly informed about project progress.
