Vim-ic (vacuum Induction Melting Furnace For Investment Casting )

The VIM-IC is made for mass production for 

• Aviation industry – turbine blades, vanes 

• Power Generators – turbine blades 

• Automotive Industry – turbo charger wheel impellers 

• Medical/Chemical/Electronic Industry 

Modular furnace concept for different sizes and process requirements 

• Easy operation by menu-driven furnace control in customer´s language 

• Repeatable castings by automatic sequences 

• Quality documentation by log files and process report 

• Less maintenance – only electrical and pneumatical drives 

• Induction and resistance mold heating (for DS/SC) 

• Fast switch-over from EG into DS/SC mode and vice versa 

• Improved mold filling and grain structure by centrifugal casting (for EG) 

• High-efficient coaxial power cables and coaxial power feed-through 

• Crucible basket technique for fast crucible exchange
