Abstract: The furnace for melting materials with a low melting point with improved casting duct comprises a furnace body which surrounds a crucible for containing the molten material and which is provided with first resistors for heating the crucible, the casting duct having an inlet arranged above the level of the free surface of the molten material in the crucible and being fed by a ladle for removing molten material, the casting duct being further provided with second resistors for heating thereof in order to prevent accidental cooling of the molten material along the duct.

Abstract: The centrifugal casting machine for molding parts by centrifugal casting of metals, or metallic alloys, with a low melting point, or of synthetic materials, includes a main framework which supports a carousel which can rotate about a main axis and supports a mold. The carousel is actuated with a rotary motion about the main axis by a motor which is arranged so that the axis of its output shaft substantially coincides with the main axis.
