McMILLAN CONROY MACHINERY IS PLEASED TO OFFER A MODERN CASTING FACILITY IN
LIKE-NEW CONDITION.
THE PLANT WAS INSTALLED NEW IN 1981 ON THE SITE OF A COPPER MINE AND
REFINERY. HOWEVER IT CEASED OPERATIONS IN 1983 AFTER COMMISSIONING AND
ONLY TWO YEARS OF SERVICE AS MINING CONDITIONS DETERIORATED. BELIEVING
THAT IT WOULD EVENTUALLY BE RE-STARTED OR MOVED TO ONE OF ITS OWNER'S
OTHER LOCATIONS, IT HAS BEEN FULLY MAINTAINED AND IS IN EXCELLENT
CONDITION.
THE CASTING PLANT WAS DESIGNED TO MELT AND CONTINUOUSLY CAST COPPER BAR,
SLABS, AND BILLETS FROM ANODES REFINED ON SITE. IT CAN BE MODIFIED TO
CAST OTHER METALS AS WELL, SUCH AS ALUMINUM, ZINC, LEAD, ETC. (AS THE
SHAFT FURNACE AND HOLDING FURNACE CURRENTLY IN PLACE ARE TO BE RETAINED
AND ARE NOT PART OF THIS SALE, THE NEW PURCHASER CAN REPLACE THEM WITH ANY
KIND OF MELTER THAT SUITS ITS PURPOSE). THE MOLTEN METAL WILL PASS FROM
THE HOLDING FURNACE INTO A KRUPP DIE BOX WITH INTERCHANGEABLE DIES TO
PRODUCE EITHER SLABS FOR STRIP ROLLING, BILLETS FOR EXTRUSION, OR WIRE
BAR. HAVING THEN BEEN CUT TO LENGTH BY A FLYING SAW, THE FINAL PRODUCT IS
THEM DISCHARGED INTO ONE OF THREE FINISHING STATIONS (ONE EACH FOR SLABS,
BILLET, AND BAR) FOR FINAL CUTTING, BANDING, AND SHIPPING.
