Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2014135501A2] A method and facility for transforming a liquid-state metal into a fragmented solid-state metal. The liquid-state metal is poured onto an upstream portion of a receiving surface (7) of a first cooled vibrating table (4). The metal falls from the downstream end of the first table onto an upstream portion of a receiving surface (17) of a second cooled vibrating table (5). The fragmented and solidified metal is discharged to the downstream end of the receiving surface of this second table. A rotary fragmentation roller (102) can be positioned above one table. The tables comprise an upstream area (7) for cooling by a liquid-gas emulsion and a downstream area (17) for cooling by a liquid.
