Optimizing DC Billet Casting
Welcome to BilletForge
J.W. Allen Incorporated has the goal of “Optimizing DC Billet Casting” for aluminum companies who want to achieve:
- World class low scrap rates.
- The elimination of random non starts, bleed outs or early plug offs.
- The best internal and external billet quality.
- The solution to the randomly occurring difficult billet casting defects and problems.
- Improved life from consumables such as graphite rings, transition plates, and thimbles.
- The reduction in the butt crop length so that productivity is improved and unnecessary remelt costs are reduced.
- An increased casting pit efficiency by optimizing the casting parameters as the last step in the overall improvement process.
- The Solutions to the challenges associated with casting hard alloys.
A proven starting point is to do an independent casting audit that provides short and long term recommendations for improvement. In most cases significant improvement can be seen just by implementing the short term recommendations of the BilletForge approach to billet casting. Refer to the three links below and our Products and Services section of this website for a summary of the equipment and technical services available.
This approach has proven to be the most successful, important and cost effective way of reducing scrap rates. Customers who have combined Mass Flow Mold Calibration with the Billet Mold Testing System have seen their scrap rates improve significantly. In one such case it improved by 5% in less than 1 year.
