A system for transporting material is provided. The system includes a container and a robot having a material-handling device for inserting the material into the container and removing the material from the container. The system also includes a track assembly having a track and at least one platform on which the robot and the container are mounted such that the robot and the container are movable along the track via the at least one platform.

A process to hold molten aluminum alloy in a refractory lined vessel using heating elements disposed within ceramic immersion heating tubes to provide accurate temperature metal for the casting industry. The vessel is lined with multi thicknesses of high insulating refractory materials to minimize heat loss with contoured corners to allow smooth flow of circulating metal provided by a gear drive with rotary shaft and impeller. The heating elements are housed in a ceramic protection tube to prevent aluminum leakage which would result in element failure. The receiving and outlet wells are separated by refractory arches. An insulated inert gas purged cover is used over the heat chamber to reduce heat loss and allow for an inert purge gas to minimize surface oxidation. A thermocouple for temperature control is positioned in the exit chamber. A ceramic drain plug is provided to remove metal for maintenance.

A reusable casting head device comprises a casting head control mechanism, a casting head mechanism and a temperature control mechanism. A gate of the casting head is sealed by the gate holder to allow that initially heated molten aluminum is rapidly heated in the casting head, thus improving efficiency; the casting head made of beryllium copper is heated and maintained by the high-frequency heating ring, thus providing a high accuracy of temperature measurement and control; and the rotating cylinder, the positioning cylinder and the reverse rotating cylinder are employed for procedure operation to intelligentize the casting operation, thus providing low production cost.

A dual-chambered molten metal holding furnace is for low pressure casting; producing cast products such as aluminum alloys using a low pressure casting method; and prevention of the gas release to the molten metal and the occurrence of air bubbles in the molten metal even when pressurized gas enters a material constituting the molten metal storage container. The part of a pressurizing chamber excluding a pressurizing pipe and a molten metal output pipe is opened to the atmosphere via an air passage gap positioned above a fixed molten metal surface level position L3. The air passage gap is positioned above the fixed molten metal surface level position L3. Even if pressurized gas is seeped into the material constituting a molten metal storage container via cracks or cracking subsequently occurred in the pressurizing pipe or minute gap originally present in the pressurizing pipe, the pressurized gas seeped from the air passage gap is released to the outside of the furnace.
