  • Page 3: Introduction

    1. Introduction 1.1. General description of the MU melting machines With this melting machine, the melting charge is heated up by induction. The special advantage of inductive heating is that the melting temperature is reached rapidly, because the heat is directly generated in the metal and in the crucible. During the melting process, the metal is thoroughly mixed by means of a magnetic field, ensuring a homogenous mixing even when using new alloys.

    3. Operation 3.1. Operating elements Temperature: Normally, the actual crucible temperature is indicated here. When pressing the buttons “+” or “–“ the indication changes to the set-point value (nominal value) for at least 5 seconds. An active set-point value is indicated through an illuminated red decimal point. The set-point value can be altered with the buttons “+”...
