Details

More flexibility, lower costs...

Indutherm continuous casting machines help you reduce production costs. With only one machine, you can produce your own alloys or semi-finished products in different shapes and sizes in the shortest time, for example:

Wires or bars in every diameter you need, up to ø 40mm (CC 3000).
Sheets and strips, e.g. ring production, for stamping and pressing.
Tubes, perfect as basic material for cutting in sections for wedding ring production.
Granulates.

As the desired molds and alloys can be produced within minutes, you can reduce your investment for material in storage. Your processes will get faster, more flexible, and more efficient.

The main advantages of the Indutherm CC machines...

Short change-over times for various casting sizes.
Additional accessories are available.
E.g. diffusion bonding set (“sintering”) and granulation tank.
Induction generators with a low-frequency tuning for thorough mixing of the metal.
Automated inert gas.
High metal quality, minimal porosity.

Optional Quattro Drive...

The CC versions 1000 and 3000 are optionally available with “QUATTRO DRIVE”. That’s the name of the new drawing unit with four motor-driven feed rolls instead of only two, which transport the material such as wire, sheet, or tube down from the melting chamber. Thanks to the smooth transport with reduced pressure, the sheeting, and tubes produced by this way show nearly no marks of transportation. The need for intense post-processing such as polishing is dramatically reduced.

All continuous casting machines also available as VCC-versions with vacuum function (pat. pend.) With the VCC-versions, melting can take place under vacuum or inert gas. This is ideal for alloys containing copper such as red gold or silver since these materials tend to oxidize easily. Degasification under vacuum results in substantially improved results – because of the absence of oxidization.

*Note: These items are heavy, and require a freight truck to be delivered. A customer service representative will contact you about your order.

More flexibility, lower costs

With an Indutherm continuous casting machine, you can quickly produce your own alloys or semi-finished products in various shapes and sizes.

Wires or bars up to ø 90 mm
Sheet and strips, e.g. ring production, for stamping and pressing
Tubes, perfect as basic material for cutting in sections for wedding ring production
Granules and flakes

Using a continuous casting machine can significantly reduce your material storage investment. Your processes will become faster, more flexible, and more efficient. Our continuous casting machines feature unique innovations that greatly enhance the quality of semi-finished materials, such as the exclusive vacuum system and the QUATTRO DRIVE drawing system. For more details, see the next page. Additionally, a wide range of optional equipment further enhances the versatility of these machines.

Unique vacuum system

For highest quality of semi-finished material:

To minimize the risk of oxidation during melting and drawing, we prioritize preventing oxygen exposure and rapidly reducing the temperature of the drawn material.

Features for fast temperature reduction:

Cooling water temperature measurement and automatic flow control
Optical temperature measurement in the center of the die
Die cooler
Additional secondary cooling system at the outlet

Features to avoid oxygen contact:

Vacuum system for the melting chamber – uniquely available for Indutherm continuous casting machines (VCC versions)
Feeding system for re-charging without oxygen contact and with constant vacuum in the melting chamber
Inert gas system for the melting chamber
Inert gas flushing at the die
Optical die temperature measurement

These measures are particularly beneficial for copper-containing alloys like red gold or silver, as these materials are prone to oxidation.

Granulation tank and flake kit

The easy-to-install granulation tank and flake kit enhance the versatility of every CC machine.

Sintering kit

Sintering and diffusion bonding are ideal processes for creating multi-colored rings, commonly used as wedding bands, or bracelets. These metals are processed under pressure and at temperatures below their solidification point. The pressure is applied pneumatically rather than mechanically via a threaded spindle, eliminating the risk of graphite parts breaking due to heat expansion. The fusion between layers is as durable as the metal itself. The sintering kit is perfect for occasional diffusion bonding tasks and smaller series production.

Bar casting kit

The bar casting kit is designed to cast precise quantities of your alloy into ingot molds or other molds. The program control recognizes the installed equipment and automatically provides the appropriate parameter settings on the display.

Quattro Drive System

In each of our continuous casting machines, the material is drawn off by motor-driven and pneumatically pressed feed rolls. A bar end control sensor automatically stops the process when the molten material is depleted.

The optional Quattro Drive drawing unit, featuring four motor-driven feed rolls instead of two, produces smoother tubes and sheets with fewer transportation marks.
