ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for distribution of magnesium or magnesium alloys from a central melting unit (2) into a casting shop with one or more casting machines (3) has a tube furnace (1) extending from a central melting unit (2) into the casting shop. The tube furnace (1) is equipped with outlets (6) at the top for the mounting of a transfer tube (7) for the supply of metal to one or more holding furnaces (4) arranged at each casting machine. The tube furnace is preferably placed inside a steel cover (8) and is positioned just beneath the metal level in the holding furnace (4). The tube furnace (1) and transfer tubes (7) are provided with heating elements (11) with an outer insulation (12). The transfer tubes (7) have an air inlet (9). Two or more tube furnaces could be placed in the steel cover (8). The metal is transferred by the act of gravity.
