Customized Combustion Solution Yields Productivity Improvement for Aluminum Extruder

摘要

Aluminum demand in the U.S. and Canada increased 5% in 2014, and continued growth is expected in the coming years across many key markets, primarily due to the increased aluminum use in automotive applications. Aluminum sheet, die casting, and extrusion producers are set to benefit from this trend. Many integrated aluminum plants will see their casthouses becoming a bottleneck as demand increases. In order to increase melting capacity, companies can invest in a new facility; add additional melting furnaces; purchase billets, ingots, etc. from the market; or upgrade their existing melting furnaces.
