MetaCast MTP Series Aluminum Pumps
MetaCast MTP Series aluminum pumps are designed for accurate molten aluminum handling and accurate metering. The aluminum transfer pump is one piece construction using proprietary, high-strength, high-temperature bonded, ceramic-infused refractory that is ideal for molten aluminum metal transfer, furnace-to-furnace or to transport ladle, with no heat loss during transfer. MTP aluminum pumps are equipped with controls that guarantee repeatability, shot after shot, and is ideal for HPDC.

MetaCast MTP Aluminum Pump Features
- One piece construction using proprietary, high-strength, high-temperature bonded, ceramic-infused refractory
- Pump rotor assembly mounted on a heavy, stable steel plate, anchored in the refractory body
- Two inlets for better displacement
- Inlet ports can also be used to circulate the bath between pours
- Friction-free moving parts under the molten metal surface
- Graphite helix displacement shaft easily removed without disturbing pump body during melt
- Shot-to shot repeatability, ideal for HPDC
- Refractory line transfer tube can also be removed without disturbing the submerged pump body
- Reduces transfer time
- No heat loss between transfer- furnace can be operated at lower temperature
- Lower operational cost
- Ideal replacement for ladle transfer and transfer from furnace to furnace or transport ladle
- Replacement for Dosing transfer systems and for tilting furnaces
Metacast MCP Series Aluminum Pumps
MCP aluminum pumps are designed for circulating / degassing molten aluminum. The aluminum pumps are a complete departure from conventional mechanical pumps with only two components in contact with the metal -unlike competitive products with 12 components in direct contact-making it the most trouble free pump available. The MCP aluminum pump body is a one piece construction manufactured from high-strength, high-temperature, ceramic based refractory with no touching components under the surface.
