The Vertical Continuous Rod Casting (VCRC) process is an advanced metallurgical technique designed for the direct casting of solid cylindrical rods from molten non-ferrous metals, particularly copper and copper-based alloys. This process ensures: • High metallurgical integrity with fine grain structure, • Excellent dimensional accuracy, and • Superior production efficiency. By enabling continuous casting in a vertical orientation, the VCRC process eliminates many of the intermediate steps requir
