Zusammenfassung:An apparatus with a vessel (20), a first induction source (30), and a second induction source (32) in the melt zone (12). The first induction source (30) is used to melt the material received in the vessel (20). The second induction source (32) is used to contain the material in a meltable form within the vessel (20) during melting. The coils (26) of each of the first and second induction sources (30, 32) can be arranged such that they intertwine in an alternate fashion or that they are in sets in a series. The coils (26) of the sources (30, 32) can also sequentially receive power such that the material is moved through the ejection path after melting and into an adjacent mold. The vessel (20) can be positioned along a horizontal axis (X). The apparatus can be used to melt and mold amorphous alloys; for example.
