The Yasui Vacuum Pressure Casting Machine or VPC K3 is a new addition to the range of superior technology casting machines, but is the most simple and easy to operate, yet producing excellent casting results.
Fully Automatic with 20 memories:
- At the simple press of one button, the K3 successfully completes a complex casting process automatically. The machine can memorize 20 program combinations, each of 8 specific parameters ensuring repeatability and consistency of your results. A user is only required to input memory number corresponding to the various casting conditions such as metal grade, mold pattern, etc., then press the start button only to begin casting.
Vacuum Melting and Pressurization:
- Differently from other manufacturers' machines of similar price level that cover the metal by protection gas only and cast without pressurization, the Yasui VPC K3 conducts the entire metal melting cycle under vacuum and by replacing impure air with inert gas and then casts the metal fully automatically by suction and pressurization.
Stone Set Casting:
- Yasui VPC can achieve the lowest flask and casting tempature, it is most suitable for stone set castings.
Jet-Crucible/Stopper (Patent):
- Specially designed steamlined crucible enables the faster and laminar metal flow and minmizes the Porosity.
Multiple Gas System (Patent):
- Melt with lightest Helium gas, and press with heavy Argon gas. Helium gas with excellent investment permeability provides best fill of metal into the filigree and thin part.
Shot Maker SM3 (Option):
- You can easily produce shots of minimum oxidation of metal. Molten metal, protected by atmosphere of protection inert gas after vacumming, is dropped into cold water. No electricity is used, and shots can be easily formed in appropriate sizes by water power only.
Data Output to External Printer or PC:
- Output of RS-232C data is possible trough exclusive communication cable (option) to your external Printer (option) or PC (not supplied from the manufacturer). Very useful for printing or recording of Memory No., casting conditions etc.
