Metallic and non-metallic impurities as well as hydrogen and oxides may negatively affect the quality of an aluminium melt. By measuring the density index, it is possible to define, control and optimise the process of cleaning the melt, thereby improving the quality. In this way, the consistently high quality of the melt is assured and the reject rate efectively reduced. The MK 3000 is a stationary electronic balance for automatically calculating the density index of aluminium melt. The densities of the two samples (atmosphere sample and vacuum samples) previously cast using the Vacuum Density Tester, series 3VT or ALSP, are determined with the aid of the MK 3000 using the principle of Archimedes. The density index is then calculated automatically. This is an important indicator of the quality of the aluminium melt. The density index represents the percentage diference in density of the two samples. The lower the density index the cleaner the aluminium melt.

Core competence of mk Industrievertretungen GmbH is the development and production of aluminium melt measuring. Using the density-index method we are able to test the quality of the melt before cast with regard to porosity and impurity which are caused by oxyde and hydrogen. The thermal analysis is a stationary tabletop unit for monitoring the quality of AlSi melts with reference to grain refinement and modification. Both of these factors provide an important indication of mechanical characteristics and properties which the finished casting may be expected to have. For both methods we deliver a software to analyze the measurements. The goal of continuous high Al-melt quality is secured and the number of reject castings reduced. COGAS®Al for determining the amount of core-gas and condensation of sand cores in the aluminium foundry.
