MU-Series

With the MU series we offer melting machines for many different demands and with crucible capacities from 155 ccm up to 1,200 ccm. The material is molten in open crucibles and poured by hand into the mould.

Melting Units MU Series

Flexible melting furnaces designed to melt gold and silver alloys and as well as aluminium, bronze, brass a.s.o. Due to the strong induction generator up to 15 kW and the low induction frequency the stirring effect of the metal is excellent.

The MU as vacuum casting machine

The V-versions include one or two additional extra large capacity vacuum chambers. The evacuation of the flask immediately after pouring improves the form filling, reduces porosity and avoids the oxidisation of the hot metal.

The MU melting systems are also available as high-temperature melting systems with ceramic crucibles.

MU-Series-Systems in the recycling process

With the MU and MUV series we offer melting systems for a wide range of requirements Crucible capacities from 155 cc to 1,200 cc. The material is melted in open crucibles and from hand in the Casting mold or chill.

Melting systems MU-Serie

These melting furnaces are used to melt gold and silver alloys as well as aluminum, bronze and Brass. Due to the strong induction generator (up to 15 kW) and the low induction frequency, the Mixing of the metal is excellent.

MU as a vacuum casting system:

The MUV/MUVV series The V versions are equipped with one or two additional vacuum chambers big Capacity equipped. Evacuating the mold immediately after casting improves this mold filling, reduces porosity and avoids oxidation of the hot metal.

The high-temperature melting system MU 200 C
