Description

• Therelek’s Vacuum Induction Melting furnace (VIM) is used in secondary refining or metallurgy, to refine alloys in fluid state and adjust chemical composition and temperature.
• This increases the required quality demands of the material.
• Therelek’s vacuum induction melting furnaces are generally used in secondary refining of many complex alloys in aerospace engineering.
• The material gets homogeneous and clean after refining and removal of dissolved and bonded impurities.
• The vacuum levels is set to be in the range of 10^-1 to 10^-4 mbar during the refining phase.
• Our furnaces comes with vacuum / controlled atmosphere and precise control for melting.
• The melting process is comparatively easier in VIM, attributing the independent control of time, pressure, temperature and transport through melt stirring.
• In the process of vacuum induction melting, we have flexibility to control the alloy composition by sampling & addition of required alloys.
