Furnace For Continuous Casting FIM CC

The furnace for continuous casting of metals and precious metal alloys is designed to provide the user with a defined shape product strips (framework, rectangle, round, tube, tape, more ...) to be sent to subsequent mechanical processing of drawing, rolling or other.
The continuous casting furnace is mainly composed of two overlapping zones, a melting zone of the metals and a controlled solidification of the same area in a defined shape.

MELTING ZONE
The melting of metals takes place in a graphite crucible by electromagnetic induction. The variable magnetic field, generated by the frequency converter installed on the machine, determines the formation of eddy currents in the graphite crucible and in the metal itself. The resulting Joule heating effect causes a temperature rise up to pass the metal or metal alloy melting point.

AREA OF CONTROLLED SOLIDIFICATION
At the bottom of the crucible is combined with a spinneret of the same material (graphite) that has a cavity of the desired shape by the customer (framework, rectangle, round, tube, tape, more ...).
From this chain will exit the metal in the form chosen.
The chain, removable and interchangeable, constitutes the real of the crucible and once melted the bottom, the liquid metal begins to penetrate the shape of the chain assuming the shape of the cavity.
Advancement of metallic form when exiting the die provides a towing system based on motorized knurled rollers.

• All functions are controlled by microprocessor
• Digital power adjustment, speed 'entrainment, temperature of the crucible and of the die
• High efficiency thanks to the medium frequency induction converter
• Self-diagnostics with breakdown messages
• Control of the temperature of the crucible and the chain by means of independent thermocouples
• prevention system of the oxidation of metal
