IMCS-1700-MAS is a compact atomizer designed for the preparation of spherical particles in a small batch (200 g Al alloy). The 25 kW induction power supply can melt high-temperature alloy up to 1700°C, including Ni-based superalloy, high-entropy alloy, or even refractory elements. With an atomizing pressure of 1 Mpa, the particle size is usually less than 80 microns.
Due to its compact design, the equipment can fit in any lab without the hassle of building rearrangement.

Induction Power Supply
|
- Max. output power: 25 KW
- Frequency: 30 - 80 kHz, (non-adjustable)
- Duty Cycle: 100%
- Induction Coil: 170mm (ID) x 110 mm (H)
- Water-cooled
- Protection: water interlock, over-temperature, and overpower protection
|
Melting Chamber ( Top)
|
- Chamber is made of SS304 with a water-cooling jacket to ensure surface temperature < 60ºC.
- 0.2 MPa max. working pressure with a safety pressure-relief valve
- Thermocouple fixture with a linear actuator.
- Observation window with tempered glass
|
Casting Chamber ( Bottom )
|
- The bottom chamber is made of SS304 with a KF 25 vacuum port
- Vacuum level: 50 mTorr (with mechanical pump)
|
Crucible with a special nozzle
|
- One set of high purity graphite crucible and thermocouple sheath is included for max. 200 g capacity ( Fe based alloy)
- OD 80 mm × ID 60 mm × H 160 mm
- Max volume: 200 g (refer to iron)
- A special design of nozzle at the bottom of the crucible to atomize the melt.
- The crucible is sealed from the casting chamber to keep high pressure at the melting chamber.
- Powder yield for < = 200 mesh is about 30% - 60% depending on the material's melting point. In order to increase powder yield, strongly suggest ordering a crusher (Pic1) and jet mill (Pic.2) to reduce large particle size and a vibrating sieve (Pic. 3) to screen particles fast. Pls, click the picture below to order.

Temperature Control
|
- Precision temperature controller with 30 segments programmable
- Automatic PID control with the protection of over-temperature and thermal couple failure.
- Thermal couple: B type
- Working temperature range: 500~1600, 1700 Max. (<1hour ).
- Temperature stability : +/- 5
- Manual temperature control for the fast heating
- 4/second(1000-1200)
- 3/second(1200~1500)
- 1~2/second (1500~1700)
|
Cooling
|
- > 116 L/minute cooling water is required to cool the induction coil.
- May click the picture below to order a water circulator.

|
Particle Morphology
and Distribution
|
- Particles shall be sieved after atomizing to get a uniform size and better distribution
- Particle distribution is strongly dependent on processing parameters
|
| Compliance |
- CE certified
- NRTL or CSA certification is available upon request.
|
| Warning |
- This is high-pressure equipment! Must wear goggles when operating.
- Must use the pressure regulator to limit input gas pressure below 10 bars
