ALUMINIUM SMELTERS
Pot lines that run for years without stopping. Anode plants under intense thermal and mechanical duty. We engineer for continuous smelter operation.
ALUMINIUM SMELTING — NON-STOP DUTY
Hall-Héroult aluminium smelting is one of the most demanding industrial processes for hydraulic and lubrication equipment. Pot line equipment operates continuously for years — crust breakers cycle thousands of times per day, pot-tending cranes move under high thermal and dust load, and the anode changing machines bear extreme weights in a fluoride-rich atmosphere.
Our installed base spans NALCO Angul smelter and Hindalco operations, covering HPU systems for pot-tending equipment, Lincoln auto-lubrication on crane drives, SKF bearing condition monitoring on critical assets, and Parker-standard hydraulic components throughout.
WHAT WE PROVIDE
- Crust breaker hydraulic systems — high-cycle, thermally-rated
- Pot-tending crane hydraulics and auto-lubrication
- Anode changing machine hydraulic power units
- Anode plant press hydraulics and bearing maintenance
- Billet casting hydraulics — DC casting, mould lubrication
- Rod mill and casting line drive condition monitoring
