Overview: The Platinaurum VAC is a vacuum induction centrifugal
casting machine designed by ASEG Galloni SPA. It is engineered for high precision casting of platinum and gold alloys, utilizing advanced technology to ensure quality and repeatability.
Key Features:- Vacuum Induction System: Utilizes a MOSFET system for efficient casting under full vacuum conditions, with inert gas protection (argon or nitrogen) to prevent oxidation and enhance crucible life.
- Induction Melting: Medium-frequency induction melting with a self-stirring effect ensures homogeneity throughout the cast.
- Capacity: Capable of melting and casting 350 grams of platinum and 1.5 kg of 24 kt gold using specialized crucibles.
- Temperature Control: Infrared read-out for platinum up to 2100 °C and thermocouple for gold and silver up to 1450 °C, providing precise temperature management.
- Programmable Parameters: Allows for customization of casting parameters including temperature, centrifugal arm speed, acceleration, vacuum, and gas values.
- Proportional Power Output: Automatically adjusts power to prevent temperature overshoot, reducing porosity and maintaining stirring effect.
