The Cal-Miser holding furnace is truly a hybrid in the die-casting industry. It stands as the most energy efficient gas-fired aluminum holding furnace available. Cal-Miser's unique design of enclosing all the components into one cabinet, varying the blower speed, coupled with its compact size and fuel economy, make it one of the most practical furnaces on the market today.

Depending on the age of your present equipment, you can expect an energy reduction of up to 75%. You can also expect a reduction in scrap plus an improvement in casting quality. It's easy to use with maintenance limited to a once-per-shift inspection and skimming function.

Cal-Miser furnaces are available in six standard models from 1600-lb. to 3800-lb. bath sizes to meet the metal requirements of each individual die-casting machine.

    Features Include:
  • No wetting of furnace walls and lining with molten aluminum
  • No build-up on walls with normal use and attention
  • Sufficient power to melt a full charge
  • Completely self-contained
  • Microprocessor-based technology digital temperature controller
  • Easily moved -- adjustable height
  • Each holder has tapout/drain for easily changing alloys or furnace shutdown
  • Entire lining and insulation replaceable at reasonable cost


All mechanical components are mounted inside the cabinet, creating a dust-free environment.


Cal-Miser's unique cabinet design and the use of standard USA components gives the customer reliability, performance, quality and longevity.
