Copper Smelting: Perfect Your Process Temperature Control = Better Metal + Savings

Article NEWS 366

3 Big Benefits:

  1. Spot furnace problems before they ruin batches

  2. Save energy by finding heat leaks

  3. Improve quality with even heating

Real-World Example:
A cement plant using infrared cameras thermal imaging found a hidden hot spot that could have caused a 3-week shutdown. The fix took 2 days.

How It Works in Practice:

  • Scan electrolytic cells to find shorts

  • Check cooling pipes for blockages

  • Monitor anode furnace lining wear

Real Results:
A smelter using infrared cameras thermal imaging boosted production 5% just by fixing found heat leaks.

Choosing Your Tool:
While infrared imaging camera price matters more, don't sacrifice:
✔ Minimum 250°F to 1500°F range
✔ Water/dust resistance
✔ Easy calibration for different surfaces
