Despite the fact of the big development of the technology of melting cast iron in electrical furnaces an essential part of it is still obtained in cupolas. In the paper actual tendencies of the improvement of the cupola process with special consideration of the structure principles of cupolas and their automatic control are presented. The rules of coke cupola processes for cold atmospheric and with oxygen enriched blast, with divided blast as well as for hot wind are presented. The technology of running long-campaign cupolas and the advantages of cokeless cupolas were presented as well. Among new solutions the FAR-system, the cupola with a partial recycling of gases and with using the plasma burners were described. There also were indicated possibilities of using pulsating gas flows as well as ecological problems and principles of complex controlling the cupola processes. The in this paper presented tendencies to improve the cupola process shall aid the foundrymen to make right choice by investment or modernization activities. The diversity of technical, economic and environmental conditions as well as of conditions related to the supply does not allow indicating one best solution.
