Laborotry 3000℃ Vacuum Arc Furnace Arc Melting Furnace for Metal Carbides

 

Introduction

The VAF-300 is a small-scale arc melting furnace. It allows repeated melting of alloy ingots by flipping them without breaking the protective gas atmosphere, and can prepare multiple samples simultaneously. It is an ideal device for preparing refractory metals and metal carbide samples in universities and research institutions.

 

Technical parameters

Model

VAF-300

Maximum Melting Temperature

3000℃

Copper Crucible

Water-cooled copper crucible with 5 stations (customizable)

Each station: hemispherical cavity, radius 25 mm (customizable)

One station equipped with suction casting device at the bottom

Vacuum Suction Casting Device

Casts metal rods: φ5 mm × L65 mm

By evacuating the copper mold, molten metal is rapidly drawn in, producing rods with minimal shrinkage porosity

Key Features

1. Front observation window + rear LED light for clear arc melting monitoring

2. Water cooling for vacuum chamber, copper crucible, and arc electrode

3. Handwheel-controlled vertical movement with flexible joystick

4. Manipulator flipping mechanism for repeated melting without breaking atmosphere

5. Small, multiple crucibles avoid cross-contamination

6. Bottom suction casting for φ5 mm metal rods
