The high performance low salt rotary furnace with stirring device is the latest addition to the SUG engineering melting furnace range, representing the most effective rotary furnace technology for processing mixed scrap and drosses.
The sug engineering rotary furnaces are able to process many types of scrap including:
Drosses.
Mixed scrap with contamination
Turnings / swarf / chips.
UBC
The SUG engineering range of high performance rotary furnaces combine advanced melting technology, process control and high quality engineering, in the tradition of all sug engineering equipment. For recycling applications, the advantages and flexibility of the rotary furnace deliver savings and efficiencies throughout the aluminium industry. The rotary furnace with stirring device and temperature control technology is upgrading traditional industry equipment and finding new applications. It deliver outstanding energy saving and productivity. For melting mixed, contaminated scrap including oxidised materials such as dross, the combination of low salt, low energy, high metal recovery and flexibility of feedstock, have shown the rotary furnaces with stirring device and temperature control to be state-of-the-art technology.
Comparing the sug enginering rotary furnaces with stirring device to other rotary furnaces and fuel fired reverberatory furnaces shows significant savings:
Low energy – typically 25 % saving.
High metal recovery 1,5 – 5 % increase in recovery.
Improved productivity – cycle times improves by 30 %.

Advantages of the sug rotary furnaces
The latest rotary furnaces from sug deliver savings and efficiencies by using proven innovative design backed by in-depth process knowledge.
Sug rotary furnaces are offered with the following:
Choice of fuels to suit local conditions, oil, gas, if available, with or without oxygen (oxy-fuel).
Double pass burner firing with ‘proportionator’ combustion system to meter and mix the precise ratio of fuel (carbon) to oxidant (air or oxygen).
‘Proportionator’ - accurate real time ratio control gives maximum fuel efficiency and process control. For example to ‘oxidise’ smoke during the start of a charge or to fire with ‘reducing’ atmosphere and save metal oxidation.
Unique patented stirring device gives best mixing of the charge, faster melting and higher metal recovery with lower salt insert.
Fast charging of all types of scrap, even oversize bulky materials, door openings available up to 2 m internal dia. Fully integrated charging machines. Fast charging means faster melting, less energy and more production.
Sug enginering is the only offerer of rotary furnaces with an accurate
permanent temperature control of the insert material. The sug system accurately shows moments of charging and tapping.
All of the rotary furnace controls and functions are controlled using the latest PLC and SCADA software, communicated to the operator by a full size colour HMI (Human Machine Interface) monitor. The data communicated to the central PLC from the various furnace sensors are displayed and stored. Data including energy consumption, process temperatures and melt results etc., are available to print and transmit via ‘Ethernet’ or wireless applications to remote locations. The rotary furnace range is available in capacities from 1 – 80 tons.
