Benefits

1. When scrap is stored outside, it gets wet and/or dirty. Scrap dryer/preheaters incinerates the dirt. It is vital that water also be removed from the scrap pieces because when moisture comes in contact with molten metal, it expands (by almost 1600 times!) and, due to an imbalance in pressure, could cause an explosion.

2. When preheated scrap is placed into the vessel of molten metal, it will melt quicker than if the scrap was placed into the vessel at room-temperature. The decrease in melting time improves the foundry’s efficiency by increasing production rates and throughput.
