Vacuum casting machine.


MCP (1) See Microsoft certification.

(2) (MultiChip Package) A chip package that contains two or more chips. It is essentially a multichip module (MCM) that uses a laminated, printed-circuit-board-like substrate (MCM-L) rather than ceramic (MCM-C).

Precision casting for forming metal shapes with minutely precise details. Casting bronze or precious metals typically involves several steps, including forming a mold around the sculptured form; detaching the mold (in two or more sections); coating its
. The machine is fitted with a heated cup module to melt and maintain the temperature of the wax as it is poured from the vacuum chamber. It also is equipped with a VarioVac module to ensure sufficient mold fill. The machine has the ability to produce components using low melting point melting point, temperature at which a substance changes its state from solid to liquid. Under standard atmospheric pressure different pure crystalline solids will each melt at a different specific temperature; thus melting point is a characteristic of a substance and  alloys. Further, the technology has the ability to cast both components and prototypes in wax, polyurethane resins and alloys.--MCP Tooling Technologies
