Directional Solidification machine for metals:

Solidification and casting of metals alloys is an important research field at the Department for material science and engineering, NTNU. For further strengthening research and education in solidification, NTNU plans to procure a Directional Solidification machine. This machine should include a melting and casting system, a computer-operated relocation system for crucibles, a heating system, a cooling system and a vacuum system. This machine should, with necessary adaptations, also have the option to be used for preparing samples of metallic glass.
