Injection (Inoculation)

is the introduction of easily soluble alloy elements in order to achieve the optimum material properties. The injection materials are usually introduced into the casting stream in powder form during casting. If a very large quantity of injection materials is needed because of special requirements, the use of wire injection devices is recom- mended. Injection prior to the filling of the iron into a heated casting unit can lead to increased formation of deposits in the channel inductor or the inductor neck.
