Steel Melting
Ajax Tocco manufactures two types of induction melting equipment for steel: Channel type superheaters for steel mill applications and coreless furnaces typically used in steel foundries.
| Four channel furnaces, plus all melt shop functions are monitored with this Ajax TOCCO computerized melt system. |

Primary melting is done here with four 34 ton, 2,000 KW Jet-Flow furnaces for iron. Ajax TOCCO was responsible for the complete melt shop, from overhead cranes to hot metal handling. |
| Three 40 ton, 1750 KW Jet-Flow furnaces are used to produce 160 tons of gray and ductile iron per day. "Off peak" melting saves them over $35.00 per ton and Jet Flow inductors enable them to melt plant generated chips and borings. |  |
