Abstract: The device includes a chamber for holding a metal in the liquid state having a lower section that communicates with three channels which converge to form a single passage wherein two of the channels include inductor cores around which the channel forms an annular zone to contain the metal. In the presence of alternating currents of variable voltage and phase, the inductors can be energized separately or simultaneously to perform the heating, mixing and transferring operations within the channels.

Abstract: The invention relates to blanks made of aluminum or aluminum base alloys for wiredrawing by impact, and to their method of obtaining same. These new blanks are obtained by casting and cooling under pressure, and are characterized by a fine and homogeneous grain, a crystalline structure with axial symmetry and an almost complete absence of pinholes, occlusions of a gaseous nature, and basaltic crystalline formations. They are intended for the fabrication by impact wiredrawing of such containers as tubes, carrying cases, boxes, packaging material, aerosol bombs, extinguisher bodies, bodies of bottles or cartridges for compressed or liquefied gases.
