VMCS-1700-HT-S is a small multi-sample induction melting and casting system with atmosphere control. It is designed for high-throughput research for the new generation superalloy. 2-16 rectangular (or round) samples with different compositions can be melt and cast in a single batch within 25 minutes up to 1700 ºC. The solidified rectangular samples have a smooth surface without sinkholes, which can be used for deformation processing directly.
SPECIFICATIONS:
Vacuum Chamber |
- A large vacuum chamber made of stainless steel
- Vacuum Chamber dimension:
- Vacuum level: 10-2 torr by the included dual-stage mechanical pump, and 10-5 torr by optional turbopump
- The cover of the vacuum chamber is driven by an air compressor which is not included)
- Usually, the melting is conducted under Ar gas and casting is under vacuum
|
| Induction heater |
- High-frequency induction is installed on the bottom vacuum chamber
- The induction coil is inserted into the bottom vacuum chamber, which will hold and heat the rectangular graphite crucible
- Power: 15 KW
- Frequency: ~80KHz
|
Graphite Crucible
|
- A rectangular graphite crucible with cover is placed on the top of induction heating plate
- The crucible dimension: Outside 150x55x45 mm, inside 118x55x28
- Multiple cavities will be built inside the crucible according to customer requirements
- The standard cavity: 16 pieces of 10 mm L x 20 mm W x 10 mm Depth, which may melt 16 kinds of the composition of the alloy at the same time with a melting point of 1700ºC Max. and 32 pcs sample of 10x20x5 mm with 32 kinds of composition.
- The total melting amount of the crucible is 1000 g (based on stainless steel)
- The amount of each cavity is dependent on the number of cavities. ( if 32 cavities, 30 g max per cavity)
- The customized cavity is available upon request
|
| Control Panel |
- Touch screen control panel is built-in to control temperature and melting/casting process
- Temperature is controlled by the digital controller automatically
- Max. working temperature is 1700ºC
- Thermocouple: B type
- Melting and casting time: ~ 20 minutes depending on the melting point of materials
|
Water Cooling (optional)
|
- 116 L/M recirculating water chiller is required ( not included )
- You may order KJ6300 recirculating water chillers: one for induction coil and one for bottom water cold plate for the crucible.
