at manual casting mode). Then swivel out vacuum chamber and take out flask.
A new casting cycle can start beginning with step 3.
Vibration device
The machine VC480V is equipped with a vibration device, which is below of the
traverse of the vacuumchamber.
Vibration starts 1 second after opening of sealing rod in the automatic program
mode, if there is a vibration time bigger then 0 programmed.
Note:
At our webpage www.INDUTHERM.de youʼll find a train-
ing video of VC450 and VC650V. This should give you an
idea how to use your VC480V.
Suggestion for a simple casting process (sufficient for many applications):
Program parameter to adjust:
Temperature:
ca. 100 °C over melting temperature of the alloy (Consid-
er the recommendation of the alloy manufacturer).
Melting pressure:
+0.00
Melting time:
030
Casting pressure:
+0.60
Casting pressure start:
001
Cooling time:
180
Casting mode:
Automat.
1.
Open cooling water, compressed air and protective gas supply.
2.
Switch on vacuum casting machine and vacuum pump (connected vacuum
pump switch on by itself within program).
3.
Adjust program with above mentioned parameters.
4.
Twist (turn) the sealing rod slightly in the crucible hole and fill in the materi-
al.
5.
Start the program process (Key ‘Automatic Start’).
6.
Wait until the material is melted completely.
7.
Wait for command ‘Set in Flask’. Confirm it with pressing key ‘Automatic
Start’. Swivel out vacuum chamber. Insert flask. Close vacuum chamber
(Remark: Casting occurs with this program about 15 seconds after closing
