Abstract

Zum Aufbereiten einer Schmelze für einen Gießvorgang wird die Schmelze mit einer Temperatur oberhalb der Schmelztemperatur in einen Kristallisationsbehälter (14) gebracht, der auf eine unterhalb der Schmelztemperatur liegende Temperatur beheizt ist. Dieser Schmelze wird in dem Kristallisationsbehälter (14) Legierung in Pulverform zugegeben, wobei die Schmelze mittels elektrischer und/oder magnetischer Kräfte innerhalb des Kristallisationsbehälter bewegt wird.
