HEAVY DUTY FUSUS NEW

Product catalog summary

Overview: The Heavy Duty Fusus New is a high-production centrifugal casting machine designed for rapid casting of platinum and gold. It features advanced process control technology, offering cycle times of approximately 60 seconds for platinum and 3 minutes for gold. The machine is available with optional 60- or 100-cubic meter vacuum pumps and includes a crucible kit and flask cradle, with specifications required for gold or platinum and flask size.

Key Features:

Vacuum Casting Chamber: Operates under full vacuum with inert gas protection (argon or nitrogen) to minimize gas porosity and enhance crucible life.
Induction Melting: Medium-frequency induction with self-stirring effect ensures homogeneity throughout the cast.
Temperature Control: Computer-controlled PID for precise temperature management, preventing overshoot.
Dynamic Arm: Double-swing arm for smooth metal entry into the flask.
Programmable Parameters: All casting parameters, including temperature, centrifugal arm speed, and gas pressure, are programmable and storable for repeatability.
Operation Modes: Offers fully automatic and semi-automatic cycles with a full-color touch-screen interface.
Temperature Systems: Two systems for temperature control: immersion thermocouple for gold and infrared optical pyrometer for platinum.
Optional Controller: Land Instruments Dual-Color Optical Controller for precise platinum temperature measurement, recommended for automatic cycles.

Technical Specifications:

Electrical: 230/400 V, 3Ph, 50/60 Hz, 12 kW power.
Max Flask Size: 120 mm diameter x 160 mm height.
Crucibles: Sintered zirconium for platinum (200 g, 350 g, 500 g) and graphite for gold (2 kg 24 kt).
Dimensions: 850 mm depth x 1050 mm width x 1300 mm height.
Air and Water Requirements: 6 bar air for coil movement, 3 liters/minute water connection.
Weight: Net 280 kg, Shipping 335 kg.

Additional Information: The machine can cast up to approximately 700 g of platinum, but this requires a special request for the appropriate crucible.

Casting chamber under full vacuum with appropriate inert gas protection (argon or nitrogen). Vacuum removes gases from the invested flask minimizing or eliminating gas porosity and radically enhances crucible life, argon or nitrogen gas prevents oxidation of gold and platinum alloys. Medium-frequency induction melting with self-stirring effect to ensure absolute homogeneity from the top to the bottom of the cast tree. Accurate Computer-controlled PID adjusts power as set temperature is approached assuring accuracy and eliminating overshoot. Dynamic double-swing arm for straight and smooth entry...
