Ladle Pre-Heating System

What is a Ladle Pre-Heating System?

A Ladle Pre-Heating System is an essential industrial solution used to heat ladles before they receive molten metal. Pre-heating removes moisture and ensures thermal stability, preventing thermal shock, minimizing metal temperature drop, and improving casting quality.

Removes moisture from ladle lining

Prevents metal solidification due to cold surface

Reduces thermal shock and cracking

Improves metallurgical consistency

Our Ladle Pre-Heating Systems in Bangalore and Shivamogga are available in vertical and horizontal burner configurations and can be operated using gas, oil, or electricity for efficient performance.
