CastExpo ‘10 Preview
A week in the sun never sounded so good. For metalcasters enduring weak demand and idle production, the fresh ideas and technical insights upcoming at CastExpo will seem even more welcome than a few days of warm weather and relaxation.

Molten Metal Splash and Furnace Refractory Safety (part 2)
A sound refractory that has been properly installed, sintered and maintained, plus operator diligence to prevent a dangerous bridge from forming, are key to minimizing metal run-out. (The second of two parts.)

Molten Metal Splash and Furnace Refractory Safety
Molten metal splash is the most common cause of melt deck injuries and is caused by the addition of wet materials to the molten bath. It can be minimized by diligently inspecting and treating scrap. Metal run-out ranks among the most severe accidents that can occur during melting and holding. First of two parts.
