STAR Molten Metal Treatment System

The STAR™ is a mobile or stationary rotary degassing system for aluminium foundries and diecasters, available in many models. In spinning-rotor degassing/fluxing systems, a metered amount of inert gas and/or flux is injected into the molten aluminium through the rotating graphite shaft and rotor. The STAR rotor shears the inert gas into tiny bubbles and disperses them evenly throughout the melt. Unwanted hydrogen gas and non-metallic inclusions are attracted to the inert gas bubbles and rise to the surface. The flux injection allows a steady flow of flux below the metal line which promotes oxide entrapment. The combined effect of gas injection and fluxing helps improve the quality of aluminium alloys and reduces overall operating costs.
