VAR Furnaces for melting material that have already been melted and cast into electrodes that are near their full packing density. Consarc utilizes fully computerized controls to optimize reproducibility and ease of operation. Custom furnaces in laboratory scale or for the production of unusual geometric configurations are available upon request.
Features
Coaxial current furnace design to reduce magnetic stirring within the solidifying ingot X-Y electrode positioning to center the electrode and improve ingot quality
Closed loop economizer cooling system or recirculating crucible water circuit
Fully automated controls from start-up through completion of hot top
Full suite of safety features including argon gas backfill, reasealing overpressure relief valves and PLC safety logicSingle servo motor ram drive
Precision melt rate control using load cells
No hydraulics – all motions are electromechanical or pneumatic
Siemens high speed processor for Counting Drip Shorts
