Volta Furnaces

Electric Arc Furnaces for Non-Ferrous and Minerals Fusion

Whiting Equipment Ltd. and its staff have been involved with the electric furnace since inception in North America.

Our users of this equipment have been instrumental in aiding Whiting to develop the furnace, as it is known today.

We can provide electric furnaces to suit your requirements for melting and refining non-ferrous alloys, abrasives, refractory materials and miscellaneous special applications.

The Volta Furnace line is designed to provide maximum reliability while offering the most cost efficient operation.

Like all Whiting equipment, the units you purchase can be tailored to suit your needs.
