SP-MSM16AT 16-Station Automatic Arc Melting System with Programmable Flip Function in Glovebox
The SP-MSM16AT is engineered for researchers developing new-generation alloys requiring high-throughput and precise control over melting processes. It automates the melting and solidification of up to 16 alloy samples simultaneously within a controlled argon atmosphere glovebox, maintaining oxygen and moisture levels below 1 ppm to prevent contamination.
Samples are placed in a specially designed copper hearth with 16 cavities, each 20 mm in diameter, which can be flipped programmatically up to 10 times during the melting cycle. This repeated melting and flipping ensures homogeneous alloy composition without manual handling. The system includes an antechamber with automatic door operation for sample transfer, enabling streamlined workflow and potential integration with automated guided vehicles (AGVs) or robotic systems for fully autonomous operation.

Hinweise zur Konfiguration und zum Betrieb
The SP-MSM16AT includes the arc melting system integrated within a glovebox with automatic antechamber doors and a programmable sample flipping mechanism. High-purity argon gas supply and a hydrogen-argon mixture for purifier regeneration are required but not included. The system can be optionally integrated with AGVs or robotic automation for unattended operation. Proper water cooling and stable power supply are essential for safe and effective operation.
