    About The J2R Casting Machine 
    http://www.neutec.com/j-2r.htm 

    For a fraction of the cost of any comparable machine, the Neutec
    J-2R IV gives you superior castings and greater production
    capacity.This exceptional machine combines advanced technology with
    practical design to give you the casting capability you need today
    and well into the future. 

    The J-2R IV employs an oxygen-free atmosphere for the metal during
    melting and pouring to help eliminate oxidation. The large-volume
    graphite crucible also removes oxygen that may previously have been
    dissolved in the metal. This means fewer defects and lower reject
    rates. 

    Cast at the optimum temperature for any design without overheating
    the metal. The J-2R IV measures the metal temperature in the center
    of the metal pool, giving you accurate casting temperatures. The
    crucible is a bottom-pour design, so there is very little drop in
    metal temperature from crucible to flask. 

    After initial warm-up, the casting cycle time of the J-2R IV is a
    fast 6 to 8 minutes, depending on the size of the load. The
    large-volume crucible holds 184cc of metal (902g 14KY or 722g SS).
    Accommodates flask sizes from 2.5" to 4" in diameter and up to 9"
    high. 

    Simple to install and operate in only three square feet of bench
    space, the J-2R IV requires only that you set the temperature
    controller for the desired casting temperature, add the casting
    grain to the crucible, insert the flask and (at set temperature)
    push the casting lever.
