UltraFlex EC-12 Multi Metal Casting Machine This SALE price does not include shipping. Lease info available
The EC12 is the perfect machine for small to medium production or high end retail shops. This induction casting machine can cast most metals used in Jewelry and Dental applications including Platinum, Palladium, Gold, Silver, Stainless Steel, as well as Ni-Cr, Cr-Co, This is not a machine for reactive metals such as Titanium.
It can handle up to a 3 X 3 inch flask in it's adjustable flask cradle. It comes complete with an internal vacuum pump, a single spectrum optical pyrometer, and connections for your external compressor and inert gas tank.
You will need an air compressor, a tank of nitrogen or argon with a regulator, and either a direct water and drain line or a recirculating water cooler for operation (Dynaflux R1200 or similar recommended).

The EC12 has several safety interlocks to prevent machine or operator harm. It operates at 3kW between 95 - 129 kHz power. You control the melting power, vacuum, inert gas, torque, and rotation speed to meet the needs of your metal and part geometry. Maximum rotation speed is 500 RPM and can reach full speed in less than one second. It uses a 44mm diameter crucible and we have a choice of crucible materials, coatings, and crucible geometry to match what you will be casting.
