An efficient technology has been developed for making and casting heat-resistant foundry superalloys in modern vacuum-induction furnaces. The technology ensures the production of high-purity alloys with a low content of harmful impurities and a stable chemical composition. The main characteristics of the equipment used to make the superalloys are presented.
