10. Apply the program-specific casting tempera-
ture.
11. Alternatively, the casting temperature may be
adjusted individually. Adjust the casting tem-
perature by pressing the "+" and/or "-" buttons
once the actual and the casting temperature
are above 700°C.
• If the ideal casting temperature is higher
than the temperature that is being dis-
played, it must be increased. The tempera-
ture is increased by 10°C every time the "+"
button is pressed.
• If the ideal casting temperature is lower than
the one that is being displayed, it needs to
be reduced by pressing the "-" button. With
unknown alloys, the process is started at a
lower temperature
12. When the melt appears to be ready for casting,
press the "Casting" button to trigger the pro-
cess. Observe the following notes.
EMF (non-precious) alloys without crucible
inserts: Trigger the casting process when the cast-
ing temperature is reached and the alloys melt
appears ready for casting after visual evalua-
tion.
Pd-based alloys without crucible insert : When
the casting temperature is reached, wait for 10
seconds before triggering the casting process.
Precious-metal alloys with crucible insert:
When the casting temperature is reached, it
must be maintained for several seconds before
the casting process is triggered (see table on
page 35). This holding time is absolutely nec-
essary to optimize the flow behaviour of the
alloy! Trigger the casting process when the
holding time has elapsed and the actual tem-
perature has reached the casting temperature.
The melt is moved by the magnetic field, not by
heat. The moving melt is therefore not a boiling
melt. The automatic starting and stopping of the
generator ("clocking") does not cause the casting
temperature to be exceeded.
