Abstract (en)

The dispensing oven has a tank (1) for storing liquid metal and projecting from its external surface with an ascending inclination is a dispensing tube (2) furnished with a discharge mouth (3) from which liquid metal is supplied directly to a mould or injection machine. In this way there is a reduction in the dispensing times to the injection machine and at the same time breakages of the dispensing tube are avoided, thereby reducing unwanted downtime. The dispensing tube enables reduction in heat loss, enabling an exact temperature to be maintained on casting and reduces oxidation.
