McIntyre Colossus Ingot Casting Machine

High-Capacity Industrial Ingot Casting System At JMC Recycling, we design and manufacture high-performance McIntyre ingot casting machines built for durability, efficiency and real-world production environments. Developed in our own foundry and proven in demanding applications worldwide, the McIntyre Colossus is our largest and highest-capacity casting system, engineered for continuous, large-scale ingot production. Maximum Output. Proven Reliability. The Colossus has been designed to deliver trouble-free alloy production at scale, making it ideal for high-volume smelting and processing operations. Unlike standard systems, this machine is built from real foundry experience. We don’t just design these machines — we’ve used them ourselves — ensuring reliability, consistency and long-term performance in demanding environments. Engineered for Large-Scale Production The system uses a controlled pouring wheel to deliver molten metal into moulds with precision, ensuring: • Consistent ingot weight and shape • Reduced dross formation • High throughput with minimal interruption Advanced cooling combines air cooling fans and water spray systems, maintaining production efficiency even at high output levels. Key Features • Heavy-duty, high-capacity ingot casting system • Designed for continuous industrial production • Controlled pouring wheel system • Combined air and water cooling for efficiency • Automatic ingot knockout system • Robust, fully welded steel construction • Custom mould design available (including embossed branding) • Full installation, training and aftersales support available Material Capability Suitable for processing: • Aluminium • Copper • Brass • Other non-ferrous alloys Typically configured for long bar ingots, with custom mould designs available to suit your exact requirements.
