TF-12000 – the giants among the tilting furnaces
The large crucible volumes of 6,000, 12,000 or 28,000 ccm gives these machines an enormous capacity. Because of the potentially large weight, the inductor/ crucible unit is not tilted manually – it uses a motor drive with a stable shaft. Use of a joystick enables the tilting process to be controlled easily and sensitively.

The cost-effective tilting furnaces TF 2000 and TF 4000
The „small“ TF machines have been developed with the focus on least possible energy consumption and on safe and ergonomic handling. The melting unit and crucible can be tilted and locked in position by the user at multiple angles for gentler filling. Such “soft pouring” also prevents damage to the crucible. Pouring off is continuous and gradual, using a pivot lever. The operator is forced to stand to the side of the machine – away from the dangers of the pouring area. In the rare event of a crucible breaking, the machine is not damaged – all of the assemblies are covered by a separate protective housing, and every model has a large collecting tray under the smelting unit to prevent potential loss of metal.
