The production of Aluminium castings globally is dominated by the automotive industry. To ensure that the correct casting quality is achieved, a more effective and technically sound melt treatment is essential, followed by a well-designed and controlled pouring practice. Automotive industry requests process reproducibility and so any melt treatment adopted must be capable of achieving consistent levels of cleanliness and hydrogen control. Many quality management systems also require a 100 % record of production data, so again a sophisticated melt treatment with data storage capabilities becomes more attractive.
