The GU series Granulating Systems

Silver Granules

These granulating systems (also called “shotmakers”) are developed especially for granulating bullions, sheet metal, or casting residues into proper grains. The granulating tanks are very easy to remove for cleaning.

Granulation process

Pull-out handle for easy removal of the tank insert. Simply pour out residual water, then pour out the remaining granules.

GU machines are available with crucible sizes from 245 ccm up to 12,000 ccm.

 Major Applications:

  • Preparation of alloys out of gold and master alloy
  • Preparation of alloy components
  • Preparation of alloys from components
  • Cleaning up of casted metal under inert gas atmosphere or under vacuum

The granulating tank for casting machines in the VC and CC series

The optional equipment of vacuum pressure or a continuous casting machine with a granulating tank is a suitable solution for occasional granulating. Granulating tanks are available for all machines in the VC series from VC 400 up to VC 12000 and for all CC machines.

Granule Flasks

Main advantages:

  • Easy installation of the granulating tank
  • Fast-changing between casting process and granulating
  • Ergonomically and perfectly balanced design for safe and easy handling
  • Optimized streaming behavior of the cooling water
  • Reliable separation of water and granules
