FLUX RECOVERY SYSTEM

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS [FAQ]

KNOWLEDGE BASE [KB]

Flux Recovery System, also known as Flux Recovery, Flux Vacuum, Flux Recycling System, Submerged Arc Flux Recovery and SAW Flux Recovery. It is a specialized piece of equipment designed to collect and recycle welding flux during certain welding processes efficiently. The primary purpose of a flux recovery system is to recover and reuse welding flux, a material commonly used in processes such as submerged arc welding (SAW). Here are the key features and aspects associated with flux recovery systems:

Collection Mechanism: Flux Recovery Systems are equipped with a mechanism to collect the used flux or slag generated during welding. This can include vacuum systems, conveyor systems, or other mechanisms to gather and transport the flux to a recovery unit.

Recovery Unit: The collected flux is then processed in a recovery unit. This unit typically involves a separation process to remove impurities, such as weld spatter and debris, from the reusable flux. The cleaned flux is then returned to the welding process.

Transportation System: Flux Recovery Systems may have a transportation system to move the collected flux from the welding area to the recovery unit.

Flux Hopper (storage container): Temporarily hold the collected flux before it is processed and returned to the welding operation.

Filtering: In the recovery unit, the flux may undergo filtering to separate impurities, ensuring that only clean and reusable flux is returned to the welding process.

Reduction of Waste: The use of flux recovery systems helps reduce waste in welding processes. By recycling and reusing flux, manufacturers can reduce material costs and minimize their environmental impact.

Improved Welding Efficiency: Flux Recovery Systems help maintain a consistent and controlled flux supply during welding operations. This contributes to improved efficiency, weld quality, and overall productivity.

Cost Savings: By reusing flux, companies can achieve cost savings by reducing the need to purchase new flux for each welding project. This can be particularly significant in high-volume welding operations.

Flux Recovery Systems are commonly used in industries that rely on submerged arc welding, where a substantial amount of flux is employed. The implementation of a flux recovery system can contribute to a cleaner and more sustainable welding process.

Irizar Heavy Industries manufactures Flux Recovery Systems for 50 and 100 kilos of flux capacity.
