Induction Melting Furnaces for The Hobbyist - The Home Foundry
2021年12月9日 · How much metal can you melt with a given power level and how does the shape/size of the inductive coil and metal load affect this? Most of the inductive coils advertised with 15kw power level systems are small, say 60-75mm in diameter and maybe 4-5 coils. So what if you wanted to heat say an A10 size crucible?
Time to reach Melting point.... - Metal and Metallurgy engineering
2003年1月14日 · Thanks for the help guys, Looks like the system bottle neck (melting time) can be overcome through a couple of methods. 1) keep a full charge molten in the pot at all times. 2) adjust the controller to over the desired pouring temp. 3) add solid metal as needed to maintain the pot temp at the desired pouring temp. thanks Nick
What are the basics of melting iron? | The Home Foundry
2018年11月21日 · The melting point of gray iron is somewhere in the range of about 2,100 -2,200 F, depending on the Class of gray iron. I have melted Class 40 gray iron without problems, and it has a higher melting point than the lower Classes of iron. For thin intricate parts, the Navy Foundry Manual recommends pour temperatures up to 2,700 F.
What are Some Hard, Crack-Resistant, Low-Toxic, Low-Melting …
2018年12月31日 · I need a low-toxicity, low-melting point metal (before casting), to cast hardware parts. The cast object will be approx 4" x 1/2" x 1/4". After casting, the parts must not crack under torque or impact, and should remain hard up to at least 100 deg C. I mean, daily environment of the part will never exceed 100C.

2017年3月8日 · Melting point of Tin is 232C, nano powder has even lower melting point at 177C. However, if Tin is oxidized, as ED pointed out, it will be very difficult to melt. the melting point of SnO is over 1000C.
Tobho's Oil Fired Melting Furnace Build Thread - Highlight Reel
2017年8月23日 · molding, melting, and pouring metal in the densely populated suburban townhouse backyard of one of the guys in my friend's club while he was not even home was a little nerve-wracking, but the neighbours didn't bat an eye, much less call the cops and the fire department on us...
Beginner to melting cast iron. | The Home Foundry
2023年3月21日 · Mark gave a good reply but I add one more thing, Sheet metal can be a poor choice in any metal to remelt because of the poor recovery rate. Sheet metal can be very thin and burns in a furnace unless a flux cover is used. Aluminium swarf is a …
Homemade induction melter. - The Home Foundry
2021年11月21日 · With a DC welder and carbon rods you can also tiny (100g) amounts of (stainless) steel. I alloyed SS 304 my electric arc melting the mild steel, chrome and nickel together and made a few castings. But an induction furnace is on my bucket list when they become affordable and reliable. The latter especially as the DIY kits sold by Amazon or ebay ...
A melting furnace for a newcomer - The Home Foundry
2022年6月12日 · Melting cast iron with propane is possible, but you would find it to be difficult. Aluminum and copper alloys are much easier. Your furnace bore size will be determined by your required crucible size, so I’d recommend finding an available crucible before building the furnace. Buying a commercially made crucible is highly recommended.
Low Melting Point Alloy Stains Parts - Metal and Metallurgy
2014年3月4日 · I have been experimenting with the use of low melting point alloys (LMPA) such as Field's Metal to hold parts during machining operations. The problem that we have run into is that there is a stain on the parts once the LMPA is removed. I have checked with the manufacturer of the alloys to see...
