•   During the melting process, the foundryman prepares the charge to melt (scraps and alloying elements). Several quotations are made to determine the required metal chemical composition.


•   The process includes temperature controls and analyses with a spectrometer in order to adjust the melt chemistry.


•   The ladle that will be used to pour the liquid metal is preheated before with a gas burner in order to be at same temperature as the liquid metal.


•   Liquid metal is then poured into the ladle.


•   Molten metal is then poured into the molds using ladle. Pouring process includes vertical continuous casting or a bottom pouring ladle.
