Which used foundry furnace was successfully sold?

The system sold was a used StrikoWestofen MH-T 3000-1500 G-eg. The equipment combines the melting and holding of aluminium within one furnace system.

Following the sale, FISS handled the professional dismantling, transport-safe packaging and loading of the equipment at its former location in Germany.

Complete equipment project

From successful sale to secure loading

The handling of a used industrial furnace involves much more than brokerage alone. The equipment must be professionally shut down, dismantled, protected and prepared for transport.

The experienced FISS team coordinated the complete process efficiently and in accordance with high safety standards.

01 · Sale

International equipment brokerage

The used StrikoWestofen furnace was successfully brokered to a new operator.

02 · Technical work

Professional dismantling

Mechanical and electrical components were systematically disconnected and prepared for relocation.

03 · Logistics

Packaging and secure loading

The furnace components were protected, packaged safely for transport and loaded in a controlled manner.

Furnace concept

Melting and holding within one integrated system

The StrikoWestofen MH series was developed for modern aluminium foundries and combines two essential metal-supply tasks within one system.

Melting section

Controlled melting of aluminium

The furnace prepares the supplied aluminium for the subsequent foundry production process.

  • Gentle melting process
  • Reduced unnecessary oxidation
  • High metal yield
  • Continuous metal supply
Holding section

Consistent temperature conditions

The molten aluminium is maintained at a controlled temperature for further production.

  • Precise temperature control
  • Consistent melt conditions
  • Consistent alloy quality
  • Reliable production supply
Complete system

Continuous foundry operation

By combining both process stages, the furnace can support a consistent production workflow.

  • Melting and holding combined
  • Reduced process interruptions
  • Stable metal supply
  • For demanding production conditions
Project process

From shutdown to transport-ready equipment

Every work stage was carefully planned so that the furnace could be dismantled and loaded completely, safely and efficiently.

01

Project planning

The equipment scope and required dismantling work were coordinated before the project began.

02

Shutdown

The furnace was taken out of operation in a controlled manner and prepared for the technical work.

03

Dismantling

Mechanical and electrical components were professionally disconnected by experienced technicians.

04

Packaging

Sensitive assemblies and furnace components were protected and secured for transport.

05

Loading

The prepared components were loaded onto the designated transport vehicles in a controlled manner.

Technical advantages

Why are StrikoWestofen furnaces internationally sought after?

The MH series is known for energy efficiency, high melt quality, process reliability and dependable operation under industrial production conditions.

01

High energy efficiency

Advanced thermal insulation and heat recovery support economical use of the supplied energy.

02

High metal yield

Gentle melting conditions with limited oxidation help to reduce metal losses.

03

Consistent quality

Precise temperature control supports consistent melt and alloy conditions.

04

Proven reliability

The robust furnace technology is designed for a long industrial service life.

Energy efficiency

Economical melting through efficient heat utilisation

The energy demand of a melting furnace has a major influence on the ongoing operating costs of an aluminium foundry.

Suitable thermal insulation and the utilisation of available heat can reduce energy consumption and support more economical continuous operation.

Thermal insulation

Reduced heat loss

The furnace design helps to limit unnecessary energy losses to the surrounding environment.

Heat recovery

Use of available process heat

Heat-recovery systems can make existing energy available for reuse within the furnace process.

Operating costs

Economical continuous operation

Efficient energy use supports lower ongoing costs in series production.

Emissions

Support for sustainable production

Reduced energy consumption can also contribute to lower operational emissions.

Metal quality

Gentle melting for a high aluminium yield

During the melting process, oxidation and contamination can influence the usable quantity of metal and the quality of the melt.

Gentle melting conditions support a high metal yield and consistent quality for the subsequent casting process.

  • Gentle melting process
  • Reduced unnecessary oxidation
  • High usable metal yield
  • Consistent melt conditions
  • Precise temperature control
  • Consistent alloy quality
  • Stable supply for foundry production
  • Support for high-quality casting results
Professional dismantling

How was the StrikoWestofen prepared for transport?

The FISS specialist team handled all required work, from controlled shutdown to transport-safe loading.

Mechanical work

Professional disassembly

The furnace body, attachments and additional mechanical assemblies were systematically prepared for transport.

Electrical work

Controlled disconnection

Electrical connections and associated components were disconnected by experienced technicians.

Safety

Protection of equipment components

The work was carried out efficiently and in accordance with high safety standards.

Packaging and loading

Secure preparation for onward transport

Following dismantling, all components must be protected against mechanical stress, contamination and unintended movement.

Careful packaging and loading planning provides the basis for safe onward relocation of the equipment.

  • Verification of the complete equipment scope
  • Protection of sensitive components
  • Securing of moving assemblies
  • Transport-safe packaging
  • Selection of suitable lifting equipment
  • Controlled positioning
  • Secure loading of the furnace components
  • Coordination of onward transport logistics
Used foundry furnaces

Why can a used melting furnace be economical?

High-quality foundry furnaces are designed for long periods of industrial operation. A technically suitable used system can therefore be an attractive alternative to new equipment.

Investment

Lower acquisition costs

Used branded furnaces can reduce the required investment compared with purchasing a new system.

Availability

Shorter project lead times

Equipment that is already available can often be integrated into production planning more quickly.

Technology

Furnace technology proven in operation

StrikoWestofen technology was developed for demanding industrial production conditions.

Sustainability

Continued use of existing technology

Reusing high-quality equipment extends its service life and reduces the need for new production.
