Ultraflex UPT-n2 system installed for Nanoparticle Research
We recently had a successful installation of the UPT-n2 system at the National Institute for Lasers, Plasma and Radiation Physics in Romania. The equipment will be used for nanoparticle research, specifically for experimental cancer treatments. The UPT-n2 has been our most popular system for nanoparticle research. This system operates at 2 kW, with frequencies from [...]
Casting Silver and Gold with Ultraflex PressCast 5G
One of our customers in India, Swarn Akruti, is thrilled with their new PressCast 5G. Ultraflex Power Technologies salesman, Ajay Mehta, recently visited with Swarn Akruti’s owner, Mr. Dilip Gupta, at their facility and was able to see their excellent work of casting silver and gold jewelry firsthand. These Silver and Gold Castings are beautiful [...]
Induction Melting and Casting Metallic Powders for Material Research and Testing
We were thrilled to host our Italian distributors Simar Srl recently, and demonstrate the capability of the SuperCast AP5. Our distributor has an end-customer in the Material Research and Testing industry, who needs to be able to melt and cast ferrous powder. We were able to show the suitability of the SuperCast AP5 for this [...]
A Guide to Casting Platinum with EasyCast
This guide shows the process for Casting Platinum using an Ultraflex EasyCast system. The EasyCast system is a centrifugal injection casting system with a maximum melting temperature of 2000°C. It can be equipped with an optional vacuum pump and gas argon atmosphere to fully protect the workpiece from oxidation and can be configured with an [...]
New Application Test – Soldering Pins to a PCB
For this Application Test, our customer needed a new process to attach copper pins to a small PCB assembly, due to a material change of the pins. We used the UPT-SB3 induction system, which operates up to 1 MHz, and is ideal for very small components. Our results showed that we can do the process [...]
New Ultraflex Application Test – Hot Forming Steel Cable
This hot forming steel cable application is a great fit for induction heat. For cables, there are additional factors to consider when heating with induction. If the cable manufactured very tightly with large strands of wire, the cable may behave similar to a solid cylinder when heated, which is very efficient. However, a loosely assembled cable [...]
Melting Dental Scrap with UPT-S5 5 kW Induction System
Ultraflex Power Technologies recently worked with a local dental scrap processor to demonstrate capabilities of the UPT-S5 5 kW Induction System for melting dental scrap. The dental scrap can vary in composition, so using the UPT-S5 and HS-4, with the ability to adjust tap settings, provides an ideal solution for this heating [...]
