The ESR process involves the gradual melting of the lower end of a cast or forged electrode through a layer of molten metallurgically active slag into a water-cooled copper mold. The slag is usually calcium fluoride with the addition of lime, magnesia, and other oxides.In its molten state the slag is electrically conductive and acts like a resistance heating element when a high current is passed between the electrode and the mold. With the continued passage of the electric current, the slag becomes superheated.The electrode tip is immersed in this superheated slag and begins to melt. The...

Consarc is the only ESR furnace supplier that designs and builds our own custom designed AC power supplies. These units are specifically designed to meet the demanding requirements of the ESR melting application. This provides Consarc ESR customers with a single source responsibility for the complete ESR and power transmission system. Consarc offers only Saturable Core Reactor based power supply technology for use in our ESR furnace systems. All systems are internally water cooled by a dedicated, dual pump, closed loop, water pumping module which substantially reduces the overall power unit...
