Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1537928A1] The alloy production process involves feeding the molten alloy into feeder or press device (7) with a cylindrical chamber and rotating it. Structural conversion is induced through at least one radial outward through passage (19) and the outlet from the press of pump. The alloy is accelerated centripetally to break down the dendrite structures before feeding it into a chill mold (16) at the press outlet.
