The HOLIMESY Dosing Furnace consists of four chambers (A, B, C and D) as shown in the sketch on the right. Chamber A is the holding/heating chamber where heaters are set under the lid for heating the melt. Chamber B is the receiving chamber of the melt from Chamber A. Chambers A and B are connected by a connecting port which serves as a heat-lock. The melt enters Chamber A and is held and heated. Then, the melt is tapped through the connecting port located at the bottom of Chamber C (tapping chamber). The tapping procedure can be easily done by using an automated melt supply system. Each of the Chambers is lined with high-heat-resistant refractory material.
