    摘要: The invention relates to a levitation melting process and a device for producing castings with movable induction units. In this process, induction units are used in which the opposite ferrite poles with the induction coils are movable and move in opposite directions. In this way, the induction units for melting the batches can be arranged close together in order to increase the efficiency of the induced magnetic field. When casting the molten batch, the induced magnetic field is reduced by increasing the distance between the ferrite poles with the induction coils, thus preventing the melt from touching the ferrite poles or the induction coils.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for producing casting bodies in a levitation melting method in which a batch of an electrically conductive material is brought into the sphere of influence of at least one alternating electromagnetic field by means of a starting material having a plurality of pre-separated batches separated by regions of reduced cross-section so that the batch is kept in a state of levitation. The regions are designed in such a way that separation of the pre-separated batches takes place only during melting in an alternating electromagnetic field. The melt is then cast into casting moulds.
