Our slag pots are offered in a weight range from 1 to 85 tons, providing flexibility for diverse applications.
We can cast pots in a wide array of shapes and styles, accommodating various mounting systems and transportation methods. Each slag pot undergoes meticulous design and engineering to meet precise custom specifications. Furthermore, we employ meticulous testing methodologies, including magnetic particle testing and ultrasonic testing, to guarantee the integrity and performance of our products.
Advanced manufacturing capabilities
Our advanced manufacturing capabilities incorporate modern technology, allowing us to produce pots with robust trunnions using both "cast in forged" and "interference fit forged" methods, the latter achieved through a cryogenic process. This ensures the highest level of trunnion strength for secure and reliable operation.
Quality control measures
Our products adhere to rigorous quality control measures, encompassing final chemistry and mechanical properties. Each slag pot undergoes meticulous design and engineering to meet precise custom specifications.
Tailored Results
At Machina Masters, we specialize in creating custom-designed solutions that meet the unique needs of our clients. Our team of experienced engineers collaborates closely with you to understand your specific operational requirements, from capacity and dimensions to material performance under extreme conditions. Using advanced CAD software and precision simulation tools, we design slag pots and industrial components that deliver optimal functionality, durability, and efficiency.
Quality is at the core of everything we do
Every slag pot and industrial component undergoes rigorous quality control processes to ensure it meets the highest standards of safety, durability, and performance. From dimensional checks and material analysis to advanced non-destructive testing methods like ultrasonic and radiographic inspections, we leave no detail unchecked. Our commitment to quality extends beyond the manufacturing process, with every product thoroughly inspected and tested to ensure it performs flawlessly under the most demanding conditions.
About the process
Design and Engineering
The process begins with understanding the client's specific requirements, including size, capacity, and operational conditions. Engineers use advanced CAD (Computer-Aided Design) and simulation tools to design a slag pot tailored to the customer's needs. A detailed design is finalized, considering factors like heat resistance, strength, and durability. Pattern MakingPattern and Mold Preparation
A pattern, usually made of wood or resin, is created to form the mold for casting. This step ensures the slag pot's exact shape and dimensions align with the design specifications. The pattern is used to create a sand mold, which will form the external shape of the slag pot.Material Selection
High-quality raw materials (usually alloyed cast iron or steel) are selected to ensure the slag pot can withstand extreme temperatures and mechanical stress. The materials are melted in a furnace, ensuring the desired chemical composition and temperature for the specific application.Casting
The molten metal is poured into the prepared sand mold, filling the cavity formed by the pattern.Once poured, the slag pot is allowed to cool and solidify, a process that can take several hours or days depending on the size of the pot.Cleaning and Finishing
After cooling, the sand mold is removed, revealing the raw casting. The slag pot undergoes cleaning to remove any excess sand, scale, or imperfections. Additional finishing processes, such as grinding, machining, and heat treatment, are performed to achieve the desired surface quality and mechanical properties. The slag pot is coated with a heat-resistant and anti-corrosive paint to enhance durability. Final assembly and fittings are added if required, such as trunnions or lifting points.Delivery
The slag pot is subjected to rigorous quality control measures, including dimensional checks, non-destructive testing (e.g., ultrasonic or radiographic inspection), and load-bearing tests. These inspections ensure the slag pot meets the highest industry standards and the client’s specifications.The finished slag pot is carefully packaged and delivered to the client.
