In the picture above, the crucible axle’s center (shown in red) is too high and
must be lowered (orange) in order to become centered.
An exception is when very thick molds (>2 mm rim/edge thickness) are used;
in those cases only, the axles should be positioned 1 mm above the slot
centerline.
2.
To adjust height, loosen the crucible height adjustment screws, move to
correct position and re-tighten screws.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure that the screws remain parallel with the top edge of
the holding arm rectangular cutout. Ideally, you may remove the circular cap
covering the motor to have a better view and ensure a more accurate
parallelism.
3.
Repeat with other side’s crucible axle.
4.
Make sure the left and right axles are co-axial one to another. If one axle
seems not to point exactly towards the other, please contact Katanax for
correction measures.
Vertical position of the mold cantilever ceramic tubes
1.
The desired height of the mold cantilever tubes is such that their bottom must
be at the same height as the bottom of the crucible ceramic axle.
