CYY-LK2 Cost-Effective Cast Iron Thermal Analyzer

CYY-LK2 is an economical cast iron thermal analyzer and a comprehensive solution for the casting industry. This device, part of the casting thermal analyzer series, combines thermal analysis with liquid metal chemical composition analysis to provide complete data for optimizing the casting process.

In the casting industry, thermal analysis is a critical step for product quality control. CYY-LK2 analyzes the cooling curve of molten metal to identify thermal arrest points for calculating chemical composition and predicting the microstructure of cast products.

Rapid analyzer with results in up to 240 seconds, featuring a 4-digit LED display (character height: 50mm) and automatic printing via embedded thermal printer. Analysis results enable operators to: - Monitor C and Si content in molten iron - Predict microstructure of cast products - Optimize casting processes - Reduce defect rates

Display and print results

CYY-LK2 has two result display formats:

1. LED Digital Display: 4-digit LED display with 50mm digit height. The operator can press the button to display CEL, C%, or Si%. Pressing the cycle button sequentially displays all parameters.

2. Embedded thermal printer: The device features an embedded thermal printer that automatically prints full English results, including measured temperature, carbon content, silicon content, carbon equivalent, hardness estimation, tensile strength, and other parameters. If the paper runs out, printing stops but the LED display remains unaffected.

CYY-LK2, also known as: Carbon-Silicon Analyzer, Foundry Hot Metal Analyzer, Casting Thermal Analyzer. The equipment is CE certified and meets international standards.

What is a casting thermal analyzer?

The casting thermal analyzer is a testing device used to analyze the solidification behavior of cast iron.

It records the cooling curve of liquid iron in the sample cup and calculates key metallurgical parameters related to casting product quality.

Compared to traditional lab methods, the casting furnace analyzer offers these advantages: - Direct in-furnace testing; no sample transport required - Fast results, typically within 60 seconds - Simple operation; no professional lab skills needed - Low investment cost and easy maintenance

Why is thermal analysis necessary for gray cast iron and ductile iron?

The quality of gray and ductile iron depends directly on the chemical composition and solidification characteristics of molten iron.

Through thermal analysis, the foundry can predict before pouring: - Whether the carbon equivalent is within the target range - If graphite morphology forms correctly - Whether the molten iron was treated properly - If casting defects such as shrinkage or porosity will occur

CYY-LK2 helps foundries: - Optimize melting and casting processes - Reduce casting defects - Improve production efficiency - Lower production costs

Core functions of the economical die-casting thermal analyzer

Measure Carbon Equivalent Level (CEL)

Carbon equivalent is a key indicator for evaluating the solidification behavior of cast iron.

The system automatically calculates carbon equivalents, helping operators determine: - Whether the molten iron is over-carbonized or under-carbonized - Graphite formation trends - Risks of shrinkage in castings

Solidification Characteristic Analysis

Device for analyzing key temperature points on the cooling curve: - Liquidus temperature - Eutectic temperature - Solidus temperature - Undercooling

These parameters reflect the metallurgical state of molten iron.

Metal quality assessment

Based on thermal analysis data, the system evaluates: - Molten iron treatment quality - Graphitization trend - Expected casting performance

Enable operators to adjust processes in real time.
