Why GUMEN Degassing System?

🌊

Hydrogen Removal

Dissolved hydrogen level is reduced to <0.10 ml/100g Al with a rotary degasser. Porosity rate after casting is minimised.

🔷

Ceramic Foam Filter

Oxide films and non-metallic inclusions are captured with a 30–50 ppi CFF filter. Clean metal enters casting, billet quality improves.

🔗

Full Line Integration

Operates integrated with GUMEN melting furnace and VDC casting machine on the same PLC system. The entire line from melting furnace to VDC is under control.

🔧

Easy Maintenance

Quick-change filter box design. Degasser rotor serviced on-site with standard spare parts. Minimal risk of unplanned downtime.

GUMEN Degassing & Filter Systems

Aluminium metal leaving the melting furnace is not yet ready for casting. Dissolved hydrogen gas and oxide particles cause porosity, cracking and segregation problems in the billet after casting. Degassing and filtration eliminate these problems before casting.

Every point of metal flow from the melting furnace to the VDC machine is under control. Gumen Group designs and manufactures inline degassing units, ceramic foam filter boxes and launder lines as integral parts of the casting line.

🌊 Why Is Degassing Essential?

Liquid aluminium absorbs hydrogen gas from the air during melting. This gas becomes trapped inside the metal during solidification and forms microscopic porosity. If the cast billet has porosity, surface defects and mechanical weakness during extrusion or forging are inevitable. With inline rotary degassing, hydrogen levels can be reduced to <0.10 ml/100g Al.

Capacity
Project-specific
  • Hydrogen Removal: Dissolved hydrogen level is reduced below casting standards with a rotary degasser. Porosity rate is minimised.
  • Ceramic Foam Filter: Oxide films and non-metallic inclusions are captured in the filter box. Clean metal enters casting.
  • Heated Launder Line: Prevents metal temperature from dropping during transfer. Arrives at VDC with homogeneous temperature from holding furnace.
  • PLC-Controlled Gas Flow: Rotor speed and purge gas quantity are automatically adjusted according to casting speed. Operator-independent operation.
  • Full Line Integration: Operates integrated with GUMEN melting furnace and VDC casting machine on the same PLC system.
  • Easy Maintenance: Filter box quick-change design. Degasser rotor serviced on-site with standard spare parts.
