STA-200S is a benchtop vacuum melt spinning system for preparing amorphous metallic ribbons up to 2000ºC. In this technique, metal ingots are melted via the induction heating method and then propelled by overpressurizing the crucible. A thin stream of molten is then dropped onto a fast-spinning surface of a cold copper drum. This causes rapid quenching & solidification of the molten and thus form the ribbon (< 10 mm width) of the liquid metal alloy.
