AdTech presented its latest aluminum melt treatment innovations at ALUMINIUM CHINA 2026 on July 8, 2026, introducing upgraded filtration materials, advanced degassing technologies, and new metallurgical solutions designed to improve molten aluminum cleanliness, casting stability, and production efficiency. The exhibition highlighted four key developments: phosphorus-free high-performance filter plates, upgraded liner materials, specialized granular fluxes, and optimized degassing filtration components for modern aluminum casting applications.
As aluminum producers worldwide continue to demand higher product quality, lower energy consumption, and more stable casting performance, advanced molten aluminum treatment technologies have become increasingly important. During the exhibition, AdTech shared its latest solutions for aluminum filtration, degassing, and impurity control, helping manufacturers address challenges related to inclusions, melt quality, equipment durability, and production efficiency.
AdTech Highlights Four Innovations in Aluminum Melt Treatment Technology
Modern aluminum casting requires more than basic melting and casting control. The quality of molten aluminum before solidification directly affects final product performance, including surface quality, mechanical properties, processing stability, and production yield.
At ALUMINIUM CHINA 2026, AdTech introduced four technology upgrades designed to support aluminum producers in achieving cleaner metal, longer equipment service life, and more efficient casting operations.
1. Phosphorus-Free High-Performance Filter Plates for Cleaner Aluminum Filtration
Molten aluminum filtration plays a critical role in removing non-metallic inclusions before casting. Traditional filtration materials may face limitations in certain high-quality applications where strict metallurgical requirements are needed.
AdTech introduced phosphorus-free high-performance filter plates developed according to European performance standards, providing an advanced filtration solution for aluminum producers requiring improved melt cleanliness.
The upgraded filter plate technology focuses on:
- Efficient removal of oxide inclusions and non-metallic particles
- Stable filtration performance during continuous casting
- Improved compatibility with demanding aluminum alloys
- Reduced risk of contamination from filtration materials
For applications such as aluminum foil stock, extrusion billets, and high-quality casting products, maintaining a clean molten metal stream is essential for reducing defects and improving final product reliability.
Through advanced ceramic filtration technology, AdTech continues to optimize aluminum filtration equipment and molten aluminum purification processes for modern casthouses.

2. Upgraded Liner Material with Improved Erosion and Crack Resistance
In aluminum casting operations, refractory and liner materials are continuously exposed to high-temperature molten aluminum. Long-term contact with liquid metal can cause erosion, thermal stress, and cracking, affecting equipment reliability and increasing maintenance requirements.
To address these challenges, AdTech developed a new upgraded liner material with stronger:
- Erosion resistance
- Crack resistance
- Thermal stability
- Service durability
The improved liner material helps extend equipment service life and reduce downtime caused by frequent replacement or maintenance.
For aluminum producers, longer-lasting liner materials provide practical benefits:
| Challenge | Traditional Issue | Upgraded Liner Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Molten aluminum erosion | Material degradation over time | Improved wear resistance |
| Thermal cycling | Crack formation risk | Better thermal stability |
| Frequent maintenance | Increased production interruption | Extended service life |
By improving the durability of aluminum melt handling components, AdTech supports more stable and cost-efficient casting operations.

3. New Granular Flux Solutions for Aluminum Foil and High-Magnesium Alloys
Different aluminum alloys require different metallurgical treatment strategies. Aluminum foil materials and high-magnesium alloys often have strict requirements for melt cleanliness, alloy consistency, and final product performance.
At ALUMINIUM CHINA 2026, AdTech introduced newly developed granular flux solutions specifically designed for aluminum foil production and high-magnesium alloy applications.
These flux products are designed to help improve:
- Metallurgical quality
- Impurity control
- Melt cleanliness
- Alloy production stability
Compared with conventional treatment methods, application-specific flux development allows aluminum producers to better match metallurgical treatment with alloy characteristics and production requirements.
For manufacturers producing demanding aluminum products, such as thin-gauge foil materials and magnesium-containing alloys, optimized melt treatment plays an important role in achieving consistent quality.

4. Advanced Three-Rotor Degassing System for Improved Hydrogen Removal
Hydrogen control is a critical step in aluminum melt treatment because dissolved hydrogen can cause porosity defects and affect final product quality. At ALUMINIUM CHINA 2026, AdTech showcased its upgraded three-rotor degassing system designed to improve hydrogen removal efficiency and optimize molten aluminum treatment performance.
With an optimized rotor design, the system enhances gas dispersion and increases gas-metal interaction efficiency during the degassing process. This helps aluminum producers achieve more stable melt quality, reduce hydrogen-related casting defects, and lower energy consumption during operation.

5. Cartridge Filter Tube Components for Advanced Aluminum Filtration Equipment
Effective filtration is essential for removing non-metallic inclusions and improving molten aluminum cleanliness before casting. At ALUMINIUM CHINA 2026, AdTech presented its upgraded cartridge filter tube components, designed for use in aluminum cartridge filter equipment to enhance filtration performance and process stability.
As key filtration elements inside cartridge filter systems, these tubular components help capture oxide particles, suspended inclusions, and other impurities from molten aluminum before it enters the casting process. Their optimized structure supports stable metal flow, improved filtration efficiency, and more consistent casting quality.
By providing reliable filtration components for aluminum melt treatment systems, AdTech helps aluminum producers achieve cleaner molten metal and reduce inclusion-related defects in billet, slab, and other casting applications.
