What this system is.
The CXM-C18 New represents a major upgrade in our medium-to-large capacity casting lineup. It incorporates advanced vacuum and pressure technologies to eliminate porosity and improve surface finish for gold and silver alloys.
Where it fits.
Typical scenarios this system is built to serve. Your specific line may overlap more than one.
- 18K / 14K Gold
Boutique and mid-volume gold casting where color uniformity and porosity rate are the bottleneck.
- Sterling Silver
Silver jewelry runs where oxidation control and clean pour geometry define the finishing workload downstream.
- Filigree & Fine Detail
Thin-wall pieces where the fill pressure, grain refinement, and surface fidelity have to be dialed in together.
- Rapid Recipe Switching
Lines running multiple alloys or SKU variants in the same day. Stored programs keep handoff-to-cast stable.
Defects this system addresses.
How the architecture of the machine maps onto the failure modes most common in jewelry casting production.
- Porosity & gas inclusions
Vacuum chamber evacuation before pour, with pressure-assisted fill and secondary vibration to collapse micro-voids before the front solidifies.
- Cold-shut & incomplete fill
Positive pressure during fill keeps the front moving through thin walls; recipe-locked thermal profile prevents the temperature drop that causes shorts.
- Color unevenness & segregation
In-chamber melting eliminates the melt-to-cast handoff step where most segregation and oxidation is introduced. One chamber, one thermal envelope.
- Batch-to-batch inconsistency
Stored programs lock the full sequence — temperature ramp, pressure window, vibration timing — so operator judgement isn't re-introduced each run.
- Operator-dependent quality
Digital recipe control removes the places where tacit know-how gets lost on a shift change. The workflow holds, even when the person changes.
