Easy and Reliable In-House Processing of Smaller Volumes.
The MC 300 continuous caster is designed for melting and casting gold, silver, brass, and bronze alloys. Depending on the casting die assembled, everything either sheet, wire, and tube can be continuously cast. The MC 300 is not only extremely fast, reliable, and cost-efficient, but also offers high flexibility in processing semi-finished products through in-house production. There is no longer any need to buy blanks for stock in all possible alloys.
Outstanding Engineering.
The MC series is the smallest of Schultheiss‘ outstanding continuous casting machines. With it, a wide variety of parts can be cast without interruption thanks to the automatic casting unit. All you have to do is fill in the material and then press the start button. After that, the previously selected process starts and continues independently. The powerful medium-frequency generators guarantee the melt is precisely kept at exactly the right temperature during the entire casting process, which after all results in a highly homogeneous metal structure. And the casting is just as precise – the fully automated system ensures consistent casting quality and complete protection of the crucible and the die by the usage of inert gas. Due to the closed system, careful melt treatment, controlled casting and solidification process, and fast cooling, the gold loss can be kept to a minimum.
