CONSUMABLE ELECTRODE MELTING USING A CENTRIFUGAL CAST ELECTRODE

摘要

A method for producing a metal ingot, which comprises the steps of: centrifugally casting metal into a consumable electrode; arranging the consumable electrode within a consumable electrode furnace structure; connecting the consumable electrode to a power supply; melting the consumable electrode in a protective environment by passing electrical current between it and a second electrode; and casting the molten metal into an ingot.
