EC-2 VACUUM INFRARED

Medium frequency electronic induction casting machine, suitable for melting all dental alloys (except titanium and pure platinum).

This version allows the user to cast any type of alloy under the best conditions. The materials which tend to oxidize more easily can be melted in an inert environment and injected under vacuum pressure. In addition vacuum contributes to eliminate gases susceptible to persist inside the investment canals. These gases tend to create an obstruction to the free flowing of melted metal and maybe the cause for the formation of air bubbles or defects. The melting temperature is constantly supervised by an optical pyrometer. All of the components necessary for the correct operation (vacuum pump, vacuum gauge and depressurizing valve) are standard installed inside the casting machine.

Version equipped with an optical pyrometer for indirect temperature read-out. An optical fiber reports the amount of infrared rays emitted by the alloy during the heating stage and a control instrument translates it into temperature. Thanks to this system, the output power is automatically controlled thus avoiding to exceed the preset parameters.

Medium frequency induction along with the ability to measure the power output allow the user to work with each type of alloy under the best conditions. Casting by means of electronic induction means progressively heating the metal from the inside outwards. This results in a continuous mixing of the alloy various components thanks to the rotating motion of the magnetic field. The accomplished liquefaction is evident as the melt mass tends to “rise” inside the crucible. Injection by centrifugation ensures maximum molecular compactness as it has been recognized as the only system capable of maintaining the material under high pressure until the solid state is achieved.

CHARACTERISTICS

• Control over rated power allows the user to work quickly on alloys featuring high melting temperatures which tend to oxidize easily, as well as for gentle and slow handling when casting precious metals thus preventing them from sublimating
• Extremely use to use thanks to the logical and incommutable scanning of operating functions
• Steady supervision of all important parameters: in case of insufficient safety conditions, prosecution of the melting process will be inhibited
• Display repeatedly showing the parameters of the working cycle or the precise description of any irregular condition
• Visual inspection of the metal process through a protective screen
• Stainless steel centrifugation chamber for easy cleaning
• Injection achieved by centrifugation provides for high molecular compactness and superior results with any alloy
• Acceleration, speed and rotating time parameters are freely adjustable
• Built-in water cooling system controlled by a thermostat and pressure switch
• Restricted energy consumption, no preferential electric line is required
• Possibility of connection to an inert gas cylinder for increased protection throughout the melting area
• Dimensions (mm): 500 x 700 x 1060h
• Power: 2860W
• Voltage: AC220V at 60Hz
