An IPC is an integral part of an optimised and automated magnesium casting process. Drying of ingots in the interest of safety avoids steam and hydrogen explosions. Consistent feeding/charging of material into the furnace prevents temperature
lapses (melt quality) and maintains bath levels at narrow tolerance levels for an optimum casting result. In addition to, automation by means of (a) generous ingot magazine, relieving the burden on operating staff.
