CONT

The metal is fed through a bottom feeder, the mold being inverted for pouring. The mold is directly attached to the electric furnace in which the metal is melted in a reducing atmosphere so no slag is formed. On inverting the furnace the metal runs into the mold. There are no heavy feeders and oxidation is prevented.
