Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFSmaller foundries generally prefer the crucible furnace. The crucible is generally heated by electric resistance or gas flame.
In these, the metal is placed in a crucible of refractory metal and the heating is done to the crucible thus there is no direct contact between the flame and the metal charge.
This type of melting is very flexible since it suits a variety of casting alloys.
A crucible is a container that can withstand very high temperatures and is used for metal, glass, and pigment production.
Foundry crucibles are made of either ceramics or graphite depending on the requirement.
