Steel & Aluminum
The steel and aluminum industry is a fundamental part of global manufacturing, construction, transportation, and infrastructure. These metals are essential for producing automobiles, buildings, machinery, consumer goods, and aerospace components.
Industrial fans play a crucial role in the steel and aluminum industry, facilitating ventilation, cooling, heat treatment, fume extraction, and pollution control in high-temperature and heavy-duty environments. These fans are designed to withstand extreme conditions, including high temperatures, abrasive dust, corrosive gases, and heavy particulate loads.
Key Applications:
Combustion Air & Furnace Operations
- Provide combustion air for blast furnaces, electric arc furnaces (EAFs), and reheat furnaces.
- Ensure efficient fuel burning and temperature uniformity.
Cooling & Heat Dissipation
- Used in continuous casting, rolling mills, and annealing processes to cool molten metal and finished products.
Fume & Dust Collection
- Remove metallic dust, exhaust gases, and toxic gases (CO, NOx, SOx, and VOCs) from smelting, refining, and alloy production.
- Integrated into baghouses, electrostatic precipitators (ESPs), and scrubbers for air pollution control.
Material Handling
- Fans aid in the collection of fine metal powders, alumina, and slag particles in processing plants.
High-Temperature Air Recirculation
- High-temperature axial fans facilitate air circulation through heat treating furnaces, annealing furnaces, and other high temperature furnace applications.
Environmental & Emissions Control
- Fans support desulfurization, carbon capture, and exhaust gas treatment.
- Fans help meet stringent environmental regulations on industrial emissions.

With expertise in both ferrous and non-ferrous metal production applications, Robinson provides custom-engineered solutions to the metal industry to meet existing and emerging process fan requirements. Robinson’s technical team can recommend furnace recirculation solutions that meet the specifications of any installation.
