MATERIAL
 
MRI pouring cups are produced from a high grade mullite refractory composition which has been proven in a wide variety of investment casting applications for 30 years. The MRI-engineered mullite composition features:

  • High thermal shock resistance
  • Smooth surface finish
  • Structural stability during the pour

  All features contribute to improving casting yields by avoiding pour cup material inclusions in the metal or alloy casted.

QUALITY CONTROL
 
The MRI quality control program monitors dimensions, surface qualities and trace element levels. Testing and reporting of trace elements parts-per-million levels is performed by an independent laboratory. Trace element reports are provided to MRI customers, and cover iron, lead, zinc, silver, bismuth, antimony and tin levels.

CUSTOM DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE
 
If a MRI Thousand Series pouring cup does not fit your need, MRI will assist in the custom design and manufacture of the specific cup required. MRI submits tooling cost, piece pricing, and drawings for review/approval before any work is initiated.

TRIAL PACK
 
So that you may inspect and test the MRI pouring cup product, a free trial pack is made available. Simply select which of the above models most closely fits your needs and notify MRI. A trial pack will be shipped for testing and approval.
