increases efficiency by 50% with promeos® Heatelligence

Imagine being able to reduce the preheating time of your process by 75% and thus increase productivity by 50%. Hydro Aluminium has achieved just that.

At promeos® we are redefining industrial thermal processes – heatelligence is our innovative approach. Our partnership with Hydro Aluminium also shows how tailor-made solutions are making a lasting difference to the aluminium industry.

The challenge: Hydro Aluminium was faced with a well-known problem – ensuring that the casting filter boxes reach 600°C to prevent molten aluminium from solidifying during casting. This is crucial to avoid production stops and to ensure smooth operations.

Our solution: A flameless 80 kW heating system, integrated directly into the lid of the filter box – intelligently simple! This unique solution ensures fast and even heat distribution, eliminates the need for an open flame and minimises the mechanical and thermal load on the entire system.

The results:

  • Energy efficiency: The advanced heating technology significantly reduced energy costs.
  • Increased productivity: The optimized preheating process leads to a 50 percent increase in productivity, reduced set-up times and improved overall operational efficiency.
  • Durability: Our solution extended the service life of the refractory materials by ensuring even, homogeneous heating.

Heatelligent promeos® technology and trusted CO2peration are the ingredients for sustainable improvements. “Thank you, Hydro Aluminium, the energy savings and productivity increases achieved ultimately also benefit our globe!

This collaboration is also proof of how our thermal processing solutions can significantly improve industrial efficiency and sustainability.

Change your business with promeos®. Let’s innovate together.
