A Skelner Furnace, also called a Reverberatory Furnace, is one of the most efficient and widely used systems for melting aluminium, copper, zinc, and other non-ferrous metals.

Known for its large melting capacity, fuel efficiency, and stable heat distribution, it is ideal for foundries, recycling units, alloy manufacturing, and die-casting plants.

At M. G. Furnaces, we design and manufacture high-performance Skelner Furnaces that deliver maximum output with minimal energy consumption—ensuring reliability, long life, and smooth melting operations.

⭐ What is a Skelner Furnace?

A Skelner Furnace is a rectangular or cylindrical reverberatory-type furnace where heat is reflected (“reverberated”) from the roof onto the metal charge.This indirect heating ensures:

• Uniform melting
• Higher thermal efficiency
• Clean molten metal
• Lower oxidation losses

It is preferred for bulk aluminium melting and scrap charging operations due to its high capacity and low operating cost.
