Var crucible cleaning equipment
Technology domain :
Combat Support & Infrastructure
Categarization : Design & development
VAR furnace uses a copper crucible of different diameters and lengths. Multiple alloys are melted in this crucible. Crucible cleaning is a very important step after each melt to avoid any contamination. Multiple method / machine are already available,
However they are not efficient and leave uncleaned patches. There is a requirement of a crucible cleaning equipment or an add-on to existing equipment, which will improve the efficiency of the cleaning.
