The MC 60 V table-top casting machine for gold, silver, copper ...
- Program control and full-text LCD display
- Vibration system for optimum mold filling
- Easy handling and short training period
- Connection to normal 230V socket
- Automated casting process for repeatable results Strong metal mixing = homogeneous melt
- Melting under vacuum or inert gas against oxidation
Rapid and simple casting
The whole process of casting can be carried out simply, quickly and safely without any real prior technical knowledge of casting. In the investment machine the gipsum gets mixed under vacuum – correctly dosed and air bubble free. The flask with the wax model gets filled under vacuum, too. Vibration during filling eliminates air inclusions.
The wax is molten off in the furnace and the mold is burnt out.
For small series and individual castings
In addition to small series production, ‘quick casting’ in between, e.g. of design or trade fair models or the rapid production of semi-finished products, is also an important aspect. The small footprint also makes it suitable for use in studios or workshops with limited space.
Advantages
- Simple operation, short training period, very good results even without casting experience
- Excellent price/performance ratio
- 3.5 kW induction generator for quickly reaching the melting temperature (maximum temperature 1,300° C)
- Strong mixing of the material (low-frequency generator tuning)
- Melting under vacuum prevents oxide formation
- First-class mold filling thanks to protective gas/overpressure function, max. 2 bar
- Low operating costs thanks to low-cost consumables and flangeless flasks
- Excellent ratio of system size to capacity: flasks up to Ø 100 mm x 120 mm H
