<p>The invention relates to a device for supplying molten metal, intended for use in semi-automatic single-plate centrifugal machines or automatic machines with three or more plates, in order to collect molten metal from the furnace, transfer the metal to the centrifugal machine and pouring same into the machine. The invention has been designed to occupy a minimum amount of space and to be suitable for use with side and rear furnace configurations. The device is formed by an automated, programmable unit including an arm which is radially attached, at one end, to the rotary axle of a gear motor installed on the centrifugal machine and which is hinged, at the other end, to another vertical arm carrying a lower ladle. The operation of the device is synchronised with that of the centrifugal machine, increasing production, reducing risks for operators, reducing power consumption and improving the finish of the end product.</p> |
