Greetings. First time poster here.
Does anyone know of a good place to buy a good used natural gas remotely controlled tipping metal melting furnace? We are looking for a furnace:
1) That we can control the pour from a safe distance,
2) that will melt 50-80lbs of impure gold and silver, per batch- (a #16 or #20 size crucible?),
3) one that tips and pours, either by electric motor or hydraulic remotely, and
4) sits high enough to pour molten metal directly into a 42" tall water shot barrel, and
5) is priced under $30,000.
All the gas furnaces we've seen are much larger and far more money, - or - they sit flat on the floor and you have to either hand-crank them to pour- or -hand-lift the full hot crucible out in order to pour.
*We can't use an electric furnace as we are smelting contaminated impure gold and silver. Anyone?
Thanking you in advance, Calvin
