【SMM Aluminum Flash News】Langdun Technology's 20-Ton Homogenization Furnace Successfully Launched in Saudi Arabia

Published: Sep 28, 2026 17:52 (GMT+8)
Just before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Langdun Technology’s 20-ton batch-type homogenization furnace was successfully commissioned and put into operation in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. The equipment passed its initial commissioning on the first attempt and has officially entered production for the customer’s aluminum billet homogenization heat treatment process. This 20-ton furnace is a core piece of heat treatment equipment for aluminum processing, independently developed and manufactured by Langdun Technology. It features uniform temperature control, low energy consumption, and stable operation—making it well-suited to the specific production conditions of the Middle East aluminum profile industry—and effectively enhances both the microstructure of the aluminum billets and the quality of the finished products. Throughout the project, Langdun Technology’s technical team traveled to the site to handle installation, commissioning, and operator training, ensuring the project launched on schedule and earning further recognition from the customer.

According to foreign media reports, the ERG Group plans to complete the second phase of its Pavlodar aluminum smelter by 2029. Daniyar Rakhmatullaev, Deputy General Manager for Strategy and Development at ERG, stated that the company intends to build the new facility at the site of its existing electrolysis plant in Kazakhstan. The project involves an estimated total investment of nearly $1 billion, with construction scheduled to begin in 2027 and completion expected between 2028 and 2029. Once operational, the new plant is projected to add 400,000 tonnes to annual aluminum output, bringing total annual capacity to approximately 650,000 tonnes—up from the current 250,000 tonnes. The company also plans to expand its value chain by using its own aluminum to manufacture automotive wheels. Rakhmatullaev indicated that the project would be financed through a combination of internal funds and borrowed capital.
