Vacuum Arc Remelting Furnace

Vacuum arc remelting var is a secondary melting process for production of metal ingots with elevated chemical and mechanical homogeneity for highly demanding applications.

Vacuum arc remelting furnace.

Consarc utilizes fully computerized controls to optimize reproducibility and ease of operation. During var vacuum furnace an electric arc is struck at the tip of an air melted ingot known as an electrode melting the material within the vacuum container. Box 156 rancocas nj 08073 0156. The var feedstock is consumable electrodes produced by vim or conventional air melting.

Exposure of molten metal droplets to vacuum reduces free gas content in the steel providing a cleaner product with little segregation. Vacuum casting faction fixture can be added as optional. Vacuum arc remelting var is another secondary refining process that enhances the quality of metal that had undergone primary air melting and or was melted or remelted in arc vim or esr furnaces. Eq sp msm207 is a compact vacuum arc melting furnace with a non consumable tungsten electrode and water cooled copper crucibles.

The var process has revolutionized the specialty traditional metallurgical techniques industry and has made possible incredibly controlled materials used in the biomedical aviation and aerospace fields. Metalwerks vacuum arc remelt var furnaces have an extensive range of capabilities. The furnace is setup to melt fe ni co ti and zr alloys. Vacuum arc remelting furnaces var furnaces for melting material that have already been melted and cast into electrodes that are near their full packing density.

The melting is controlled by a plc and the robust vacuum system creates very high purity material with low inclusion content. A built in mechanical manipulator is included for tilting and rotating metal ingots for the re melting process. This furnace is used to remelt vim or ism ingots into larger ingots for processing. The crucible sizes range from 2 5 diameter and up to 20 diameter.
