Metal Melting and Casting Kit

Key Features of the Round Metal Bar Casting Mold:

· Vacuum casting capability: Standard setup allows for casting round bars with a diameter of 12 mm and a length of 50 mm.

· Round metal bar casting mold is designed for vacuum/inert atmosphere melting: Effectively prevents oxidation and gas absorption in the molten metal, ensuring alloy purity.

· Rapid transfer: Tilting the crucible allows molten metal to flow quickly into the copper mold.

· High-thermal-conductivity copper mold: Facilitates rapid cooling and solidification, promoting a refined grain structure and enhancing the mechanical properties of the sample.

· Crucible dimensions (φ50 x 15 mm): Suitable for small-batch R&D involving high-value materials.

· Simple, precise operation: Manual crucible tilting (up to 75°) minimizes operational complexity and the risk of splashing.

Applications of the Round Bar Metal Casting Kit:

An ideal choice for materials research in universities, research institutes, and corporate R&D departments:

· New alloy development: Used for producing small sample bars of non-ferrous alloys (e.g., aluminum, magnesium, and copper alloys).

· Material physical property testing: Produces standard round bars for hardness testing, tensile testing, and metallographic analysis.

· Secondary melting process research: Investigates the effects of degassing, slag removal, and casting parameters on microstructure.

· Precious metal casting: The small-capacity crucible design is particularly suitable for melting and precision casting of precious metals like gold and silver.

FAQ:

Q: Must this lab metal casting kit be used in a vacuum environment?

A: This kit is specifically designed for vacuum casting systems. While casting can be performed at atmospheric pressure, we strongly recommend using it with Kejing’s MSM series main units in a vacuum or inert gas atmosphere to ensure optimal sample rod quality (free from oxidation and porosity).

Q: Does the copper mold require preheating?

A: Generally, no. The high thermal conductivity of the copper mold facilitates rapid solidification, resulting in a finer microstructure. However, for certain alloys with poor fluidity, process adjustments may be made according to experimental requirements.

Q: What is the durability of the crucible and copper mold?

A: The crucible is made of high-temperature resistant material, and the copper mold is precision-machined. Under normal operating conditions (avoiding severe impact and operation beyond temperature limits), they offer a long service life. Should wear occur due to frequent use, individual replacement parts are available for purchase.
