About Us


More About Us

Located in the heart of Northern California's Sonoma wine country, Rayteq manufactures advanced, energy-saving electric melting furnaces for the light metal casting industries, writes and supplies software that effectively reduces utility demand charges, and produces new, high power density heating elements for higher melting rates and longer operating life.

Rayteq's Fleet Commander software operates with all Rayteq electric melters as well as conventional electric furnaces equipped with Fleet Commander retrofit kits. Fleet Commander™ IDMS™ systems are operating electric furnace fleets all over North America.

Why Choose Us

Rayteq offers many standard electric furnace models with melt rates ranging from 250 lbs./hour up to 2,200 lbs/hour with capacities from 450 lbs to 4,200 lbs aluminum.

Electric Melting Furnaces

RAYTEQ's high-powered, compact electric furnaces with new hybrid digital/analog controls slash energy costs by melting right at the die casting machine or molding line, eliminating wasteful energy losses from hot metal transporting, launders and holding furnaces in central melt systems. Additional advantages include higher energy efficiency, less metal loss, fewer scrapped castings, no operator heat stress, no noise, all while virtually eliminating air quality issues.

Heating Elements

RAYTEQ high power density heating elements with new life-enhancing materials technology achieve higher melting rates while virtually eliminating internal stresses for increased strength and shock resistance. Exact replacements featuring this new technology now available for Dynarad* and StrikoDynarad* furnaces in all sizes, wattages and voltages, and come with stranded nickel-chrome leads.

Windsor Electronics Division

Rayteq's wholly-owned Windsor Electronics Division designs and manufactures custom programmable logic controllers (PLCs), printed circuit boards, integrated electronics such as Rayteq's retrofit control panels, 3D component printing, 2D CNC controlled machining and engraving, and supplies all firmware for Rayteq's Furnace Director™ PLCs and retrofit control panels as well as Fleet Commander™ interactive demand management software.
