Each individual lance manipulator is matched to the specific conditions in the application, such as the space available in the plant and the shape of the furnace.
Where floor space is not available close to the furnace for mounting of a standard manipulator the entire unit can be suspended from the roof and arranged to be fully retracted when not in use.  

The SampSafe is a remote controlled, movable robot for temperature measuring and sample taking in a furnace.
The SampSafe is moved to the working position immediately before sampling. When not in use, the sampler is parked in a protected area at a suitable distance from the furnace, without obstructing transport, service work or furnace changes etc.

Ingot casting moulds need be cleaned of remaining scales on the interior prior to each now cast in order to avoid surface contamination of the produced ingot.
Efficient cleaning is received by controlled spraying of a small quantity of clean high pressure water on to the still comparatively hot mould shortly after dumping of the ingot.
The shown installation is fully automated and consists of two spraying lances operating in parallel. This machine cleans more than 80 000 moulds each year.
