D&E Foundry Ladles "Designed by Foundrymen For Foundrymen"

D&E Foundry products manufactures a complete selection of ladle accessories. Some accessories are designed specifically for our process ladles, but others will improve the performance of any ladle.

ACCESSORIES FOR PROCESS LADLES

Spare Ladle Bottoms: The reactions in process ladles occur primarily in the bottom of the ladle. This subjects the bottom refractory to more wear than the rest of the ladle and means that more maintenance of the bottom is required. This maintenance is greatly facilitated when a spare bottom is available.

Spare Refractory Plug Assembly For Tight Cover Ladles: The refractory lined swing cover closes the port used for pour out, alloy addition, and slagging. The spare allows the assembly to be replaced without incurring downtime.

Preheat Torch For Tight Cover Ladles: Preheating of Tight-Cover Ladles presents some special challenges because the ladle is covered and access is limited. This preheat torch is designed to work effectively within those limitations.

Pail Top Funnel For Tight Cover Ladles: The pail top funnel simplifies alloy addition to covered ladles. Recommended for ladles through 6000-lb. capacity.

Ladle Lining Forms: Custom made for each ladle, these forms guarantee a consistent lining thickness and low labor cost. Refractory can be rammed, cast, or vibrated.

Motorized Gear Tilt:` All ladles are available with motorized gear tilt features. The motors are typically electric, but air and hydraulic models are also available.

Ladle Cradles: Cradles are available to hold ladles for pouring. Special fork lift cradles are also available for transport and pouring.

Replacement Ladle Tilt Gearing: All D&E Foundry Products gearboxes are built with Cone Drive double enveloping worm gears. They combine low backlash and great strength. This means that foundries may be able to replace other manufacturer's worn or damaged gearboxes with high quality D&E gearing that guarantees long life and superior ladle control. See Innovative Features for more information about our ladle tilt gearing.

Low Headroom Bail Option:  All D&E ladles are available with a low headroom bail at no additional cost. These bails reduce vertical operating space requirements by 8 to 15 inches. This is accomplished by eliminating the hook eye and capturing the hook with a removable pin that is inserted between the horizontal bail channels as illustrated.
