AbstractAn improved apparatus is set forth wherein powder is produced by melting metal in a crucible where it is then poured into a tundish which directs the molten metal onto a spinning disc means. A nozzle plate has a central opening through which the metal is directed from the tundish to the disc means. An efficient annular nozzle means directs a cooling fluid around the disc means. The crucible has means for tilting it which keeps the molten metal entering the tundish properly as the metal is poured therefrom. | InventorApplicationNo. 05/748084 filed on 12/06/1976US Classes:425/8, By slinger or rotating liquid comminutor239/548UNITARY PLURAL OUTLET MEANSField of Search239/548, UNITARY PLURAL OUTLET MEANS239/552, Insert at terminus forms plural streams239/589RIGID FLUID CONFINING DISTRIBUTORExaminersPrimary: Spicer, Robert L.
