510 & 510 "Flow-Logic" Casting Machines

     
The ground breaking Neutec/USA 510 & 515 induction-heated casting machines are the first members of the next generation of casting equipment. 

The future of casting is here!

Engineered into the Neutec 510 and 515 machines is an exclusive combination of innovative new technologies called Flowlogicª.  The components of Flowlogic work together to control the flow of molton metal throughout the pour, so that

• fill rate is maximized
• gas and shrinkage porosity are minimized
• system temperatures are reduced
• direction of solidification is optimized.

Because pour is dependably controlled, you can cast successfully at lower temperatures - a special benefit for stone-in-place casting practices.


Pressure Differential Casting

Also exclusive to the 510 and 515 machines is Neutec's innovative pressure differential casting. Unlike its predecessor (pressure-over-vacuum), pressure differential casting needs no vacuum pump to assist the cast. Pressure differential casting increases the fill rate, the pour speed and the pressure level during the pour, while actually reducing turbulence as the metal enters the mould. As an added benefit, the zinc loss and karat creep associated with karat gold alloys is reduced. 


The First Truly Closed System

The Neutec 510 and 515 machines provide the first truly closed casting system. Metal is introduced into the crucible without compromising the controlled environment of the crucible chamber.  

Finally, automatic process and precision temperature controls (newly enhanced to be even faster and more accurate than ever) ensure that every Neutec cast provides the most effective, efficient outcome for your time, labour and materials.
