CSIR-National Metallurgical Laboratory [CSIR-NML]: This invention introduces a portable cone-shaped apparatus for preheating clay molds and recovering resin, designed to enhance energy efficiency in melting furnaces used by artisans and industries in metal and alloy production. The apparatus uses hot flue gases to preheat clay molds, which are then transferred to a furnace for further heating. It includes a baffle filter mechanism that is easy to fabricate and maintain, making it economical and eco-friendly. Applications include improving the efficiency and sustainability of mold preparation in the production of metal and alloy artifacts.
