A pilot device for the vertical casting of special alloys

Edit
Purpose of equipment
The device is used for testing new technology of electromagnetic casting of aluminium alloys (groups 7xxx, 5xxx, 2xxx), which allows casting rods with smaller grains in the microstructure, better homogeneity and practicaly eliminates the microsegregation. With this the mechanical properties of the alloy are automatically improved. Dew to the minimization of the required homogenisation annealing (less annealing, shorter times) the production productivity is increased by 20 % and the 15 % of energy is saved.
