Abstract

A furnace, developed as a laboratory tool for studying the application of skull-casting techniques to high-temperature metals, has been used successfully to produce small castings of various reactive and refractory metals. Because of its small size, the apparatus has been useful in studying the casting characteritics of costly and hard-to-melt metals.
