  • Page 6: Induction Heating Principle

    In the centrifugal casting machine mod. MODULAR 6 the frequency is 80 KHz. All metals have induced within them “eddy currents” and the metal electrical resistance to these currents provokes a temperature rise and eventual melting.
  • Page 7 The MODULAR 6 fits a universal flask cradle i.e. with an easy movement of the lever it is possible to adjust the flask support and any sprue button of the flask will be easily centered with the crucible exit hole.

    An eventual waiting time of 5 t 15 seconds will depend on alloy quality and quantity and if metal is partially recovered from previous castings. Take note of the thermal level value shown on the display A at the moment of centrifugation : it will be an indication for all subsequent castings. MODULAR 6...

    ♦ When the casting wax model is designed, take care to make the reduced sprue button B and not the large button D otherwise the latter, if recovered, will not enter into the crucible properly and it will have difficulties to reach the melt. Furthermore due to its thermal expansion, it may break the crucible. MODULAR 6...
  • Page 16: Melting And Casting Process

    ♦ The crucible life will be longer if castings are made successively one after the other: overage life 15-20 castings. If castings are made in interrupted sequences i.e. with long interval between one and the following melting, crucible will cool down continuously and its life will be shorter: average life 8-10 castings.
