Abstract：Nonferrous metallurgy is the second largest basic raw material industry after steel. However, it is currently facing severe environmental protection requirements, and its production status of high energy consumption and high pollutant emissions seriously restricts the development of the industry. Problems such as high energy consumption, low thermal efficiency, large resource consumption and short equipment life in the process of metal melting can be effectively improved by immersion heating technology. Based on this, a new type of immersion heating equipment for die-casting aluminum has been designed and developed in this paper. Compared with external heating equipment, the energy savings are more than 50% . Meanwhile, the equipment integrates many functional parts, which can significantly reduce the labor intensity. Therefore, it has broad market application prospects.
