A vacuum induction melting strip casting furnace (VIM-SC) was commissioned for a manufacturer in North Carolina.
Consarc Corporation and Vulcan Elements announced the commissioning and delivery of the furnace at Vulcan Elements’ new facility in North Carolina’s Research Triangle Park. The collaboration marks a significant milestone in the effort to re-shore rare earth magnet production and strengthen supply chain resilience.
This furnace enables the rapid solidification of Neodymium Iron Boron (NdFeB) alloys—critical materials for high-performance magnets used in electric vehicles, defense systems, wind turbines, and advanced electronics.
