Induction Melting - Gold Melting

Induction Melting is an ideal method for the melting of ferrous and non-ferrous metals and is used extensively for the melting of Gold, Silver, Copper, Aluminum and Steel alloys. Induction Heat is quite, cost effective to run and does not put harmful emmissions into the atmosphere. In this video you will see about 20 lbs of gold being melting. The total melt time was approximately 15 minutes.

seems like the walls are being heated , not gold

[rdoinduction]

@Thetruthishere11 _ The walls are a Silicon Carbide crucible, which the primary field is being induced into, however there is RF Field effect in the metal as well to give it a stirring effect. If melting gold, especially karat gold directly it is quite easy to burn off some of the lower melting point alloys, thus changing the overall karat content

@rdoinduction

interesting. Graphite and silicon carbide crucible not good enough for me if i need to melt iron.

[rdoinduction]

@Thetruthishere11 this is correct - this system is tuned for a graphite or SIC load and is strictly for melting gold, silver and other non-ferrous metals. For iron and other high temperature metals, the system would tuned to the load and the crucible or furnace lining would be of a high temperature ceramic or refractory material

KW of the unit ?

[rdoinduction]

@salut151 - system is 24kW in power with a 38 kg gold capacity

oh i burn gold all the time for shits and gigs too, right after i have my bowl of diamond cereal

[xferociousx]

assuming 31.1034768 grams = 1 troy ounce and 1 pound = 14.5833333 troy ounces and 1 troy ounce of gold value = ~$1,494.33(May 16, 2011). we have 1,494.33(20 x 14.5833333) = $435,846.25(rounded to nearest cent) worth of gold they are 'playing' with there. all I can is, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

i wanted to see the gold bar at the end... what a tease.

[MormonJezus]

I'd totally inhale those golden vapors.

he kept some for him self

@pell819 HAHAHAHHAAH, you are funny, dude, ehhehehe

[carloko08]

my crap!!! that was a pure gold nuggets, in a dammit plastic bag!!

[Mac1634]

We can't see the finished product? I wanted to see the bar of gold.
