Molten Metal Systems

Crucible Stands

Completion of Sale of MMS

Further to the announcement of 22 August 2025, Morgan Advanced Materials plc., announces that on 12 November 2025 it completed the sale of its Molten Metal Systems (MMS) business.

In fuel fired and electric resistance crucible furnace applications, it is highly recommended to use Molten Metal Systems stands (base blocks) made from materials similar to silicon carbide or clay graphite crucibles.

These stands help to minimize thermal and mechanical stresses on the bottom and side walls of the crucible by providing a highly conductive fully-supporting flat surface with similar thermal expansion rates.

These stands come in a variety of cylindrical and conical sizes ranging in diameter from 150 to 800mm and heights from 25mm to 200mm (depending upon the stand diameter).

Features:

• Compatible with all Morgan crucibles.
• Highly conductive material – energy savings and higher melt rates.
• Reduction in thermal shock related crucible issues.
• Guaranteed complete and even crucible support.
