PressCast Mini: Low-Volume, Versatile Induction Casting Systems for Professional Jewelers
Category: Casting Equipment
The PressCast Mini is designed to meet the demands of small to medium scale jewelry manufacturers. This pressure-over vacuum casting system is versatile and capable of producing exceptional quality castings, including “stone-in-place” techniques for all low melting point metals and alloys such as gold, silver, brass, and more.
Optimal Performance with High Casting Pressure
Achieve flawless results with a high casting pressure of up to 2.5 bar (external vacuum pump required). This ensures the perfect filling of the finest details, making it ideal for intricate designs. The integrated thermocouple probe and temperature controller guarantee consistent casting quality and repeatability, every time.
Advanced Induction Heating Technology
Leverage the power of our advanced induction heating technology for fast and efficient melting. This system offers excellent mixing of molten metal through low frequency electromagnetic pulsing, enhancing the integrity and quality of your final product.
