 |
| Retech's new VAR-T 900mm |
| for Titanium, Zirconium,& Hafnium |
- Titanium
- Zirconium
- Tantalum
- Niobium
- Titanium Aluminides
- Reactive and refractory metals including nuclear materials
- Double- and Triple-VAR-Melt Aeronautical Grade Specifications
- Standard Heavy (1100mm/44" ingots) and Light (900mm/36") sizes
The traditional VAR-T design concept providing stability for the tallest welded artwork electrode, and configurable to specific application parameters.
- Next-generation accessible, compact, electromechanical design
- Free Standing, independent of building structure
- Open & Accessible with Raised Base
The VAR-T consists of just five (5) major sub-assembly modules, independently built and tested. This modular build approach enables repeatable assembly procedures, accuracy in making critical adjustments, performing incremental inspections, testing and greatly expedites shipment, offloading and on-site erection work. In addition, all parts are pre-finished and final inspected prior to assembly work.
- Pylon
Includes column swing mechanism
- Melt Stations
Includes ram and furnace head body lift mechanisms
- Upper Head Assembly
Consisting of Power Ram, X-Y Positioning, Load Cells and cables/bus connection
- Box Column
Includes ram and furnace head body lift mechanisms
- Lower Head Assembly
Depending on furnace configuration, one (1) or two (2) Melt Station water jackets are factory pre-aligned to drop-fit into the furnace base, accommodating a range of crucible sizes and matching water velocity guides, and assembled complete with stirring coils and optional melt lock valves. Connections and alignments off the Pit Floor are eliminated.
