SP-MSM-300 Arc Melting System with Electromagnetic Stirring and Vacuum Casting
Its core component is a water-cooled stainless steel vacuum chamber capable of achieving practical vacuums down to 5×10-6 torr, with an ultimate vacuum reaching 7×10-7 torr. The chamber includes tinted observation windows and a hinged front door for operational convenience. A built-in wobble stick allows sample flipping without breaking vacuum, enhancing process efficiency.

대표적인 적용 분야
Ideal for research and development of advanced steel alloys, the SP-MSM-300 supports uniform melting and casting under controlled atmospheres. It is suitable for producing homogeneous alloy samples, vacuum casting rods, and exploring electromagnetic stirring effects on melt dynamics.
구성 및 작동 안내
The system includes interchangeable copper hearths for either electromagnetic stirring or vacuum casting; users must specify the preferred hearth type when ordering. The wobble stick enables sample manipulation without venting the chamber, preserving vacuum integrity. High-purity inert gases or hydrogen-argon mixtures are recommended to minimize oxidation during melting. Optional vacuum and cooling systems enhance performance but are not included as standard. Proper installation of a two-stage pressure regulator on gas cylinders is required for safe operation.
