High-performance thermal seals are defined as materials that have excellent mechanical resistance to corrosive elements that are present in high-temperature applications as well as being flexible materials. Thermal seals need to be made from materials [...]

The cast house is the most labor-intensive area of a furnace operation. There are taphole drills, jack dam drills, trough covers, tilting runners, control cabins, refractory consumables, and other equipment that need to be loaded [...]

Potlines are an integral part of the large-scale production of aluminium. A potline is a row of serially arranged electrolytic cells (typically 100-400) used to produce aluminium. In a potline, the cathode of one cell [...]

Protective heat shields are used as barriers to sources of extreme heat; usually some sort of mechanical sub-system that inherently generates high temperatures. Alternatively, certain high-performance applications require protective thermal management solutions that manage heat [...]

Heat shields are critical components used for thermal management in a wide range of applications, and their purpose doesn’t tend to vary much from market to market—whether they are used on a car or a [...]

Heat shields minimize the operating costs of a system by way of intercepting radiated heat that would usually add to the load on the low-temperature section of the system. Heat shields are often considered to [...]
