- Handling Precautions
- In order to allow complete melting, pre-heat materials at following conditions (melting times are referred to 200 kg drums,stored at 20°C):
- Pre-heating temperature (°C) - 60
- Pre-heating time (hours) - 16
- After pre-heating, make sure all materials are completely melted.
- Well mix melted material by drilling or rolling the drum.
- Load materials to the machine immediately after mixing.
- Materials must be stored under nitrogen blanket after use.
