Indutherm VC 480V - Fully Automatic Vacuum Gold Casting Machine

Vibration technology now also in the mid-size class: the highly economic vacuum pressure casting machine VC 480 V

Equipped with theIndutherm VC 480V - Fully Automatic Vacuum Gold Casting Machine this setup optimizes form filling and produces castings with reduced porosity, finer grain, and excellent post-processing properties. It features an 8 kW induction generator and a variable vacuum in the flask chamber. The crucible has a maximum volume of 170 ccm, accommodating up to 2.5 kg of 18 ct gold. It supports flask sizes up to Ø 130 mm x H 260 mm and operates at temperatures up to 1,600°C.

New programm control system

The new control panel, featuring a real text LCD display, allows for easy and comfortable setting of all programs and parameters. With 100 casting programs available, fast operation and consistent casting results are guaranteed. Parameters for all major alloys, such as AGS, Alpha Plus, Heraeus, Legor, and Pandora alloys, come preprogrammed. This means you can expect excellent casting results from the first flask without the need for expensive preliminary tests.

Introducing a New System for Faster and More Laminar Metal Flow

The Indutherm Vibration System

The vibration technology (patent pending) is the most crucial of all technical features. Independent scientific studies demonstrate that:

• Vibration improves material flow and hence the quality of the mould filling, particularly with complicated moulds.
• Castings exhibit a higher and more consistent density for all tested alloys and shapes.
• Porosity is substantially reduced.
• Risk of hot cracks is reduced.
• 50% smaller grains
• Castings have greater stress and elasticity properties, making them easier to process further.

In practice this means:

higher and more consistent casting quality, less waste, less post-processing, more possibilities for further processing.
