Counterweight setting EDG - C1 CENTRIFUGE(8): the exclusive arm design (2) of the compensates
small balance errors, letting this operation easy and simple to be executed. 4 rings come with
the centrifuge having the following sizes: 1x, 3x, 6x, 9x. In the equipment arm there are marks (14)
that indicate the counterweight position for each one of the rings above. Remove the counterweight
(8) by rotating it from the right to the left. Place it in the position relative to the used ring. Tighten the
counterweight (8) rotating it from the left to the right. To obtain the fixation of the counterweight (8) just
tighten it softly and a locking device will fixate it in the required position. For the use of rings of different
sizes from the ones provided with the equipment, it is necessary a previous test to check in which position
of the counterweight (8) it is obtained the best balance.
We will start the casting after setting all the parameters.
Take the support of the melting pot rack (12) in the direction of the center of the centrifuge arm.
Using a pincer adjust the melting pot (9) previously heated to the rack (1).
Put metal in compatible amount with the work to be executed in the melting pot (9) and heat it
with the EDG soldering pipe.
When the metal is melted, remove the ring from the furnace with a pincer and put it on its rack (10).
Adjust by means of the elevator (11) the height of the ring in such a way that the ring center be
the same as the melting pot outlet orifice.
Still using the pincer, approximate the melting pot support (12) to the ring.
When the metal is ready to melt, remove the soldering pipe quickly and rotate the protection from
the left to the right until it closes totally.
The centrifuge will automatically start and will be rotating until the end of the determined time. An
alarm will be sounded and the melting will be finished.
After the total stop of the centrifuge arm, open the equipment protection (3).
The equipment will be ready for a new melting.
