Specification Codes
VFD = The VFD series is a full size machine designed for high sample out put. Samples are dissolved and mixed into a lithium borate flux. The sample is automatically poured into pre-heated moulds. The moulds are then retracted over separate cooling jets for precise control of cooling.
R = The R series is smaller than the M series and is designed for lower sample output. The sample is automatically poured into pre-heated moulds. The moulds are then cooled in situ above the burners.
C = The C series is a full size machine similar to the M series but has computer controlled timing functions, a database of recipes is included with each machine and there is capacity to create and store individual recipes. Operation. A recipe is selected from the database, all timing functions are preset, the samples are then automatically pre heated before being dissolved and mixed into a lithium borate flux. The sample is automatically poured into pre-heated moulds. The moulds are then retracted over separate cooling jets for precise control of cooling.

I = The I series is a full size machine. Samples are dissolved and mixed in platinum/gold crucibles. The crucible and solidified sample is removed from the machine, placed into a separate beaker to dissolve and heated/swirled over a separate hotplate.
D = The D series is a full size machine. Samples are dissolved and mixed in platinum/gold crucibles.The sample is automatically poured into beakers. The beakers are then removed and heated/swirled over a separate hotplate.
LOI = The LOI series is a full size machine designed for the automated laboratory. Its simplicity of design makes it easy to adapt to robotic automation.
Operation. Samples are weighed into specially designed crucibles, a lid is placed on the crucible and then placed in to the machine. The burners ignite and automatically heat (typically 1000 deg C) and cool the crucible for pre-selected times. Crucible are removed for weighing and loss determination.
MOULDABLE = This series of machine allows for both melting and casting to be done in one vessel (mouldable). Once melted the sample is mixed, the mouldable is levelled and cooled to form the bead automatically. |
