ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is set forth for the continuous production of highly cooled metal splats. Melted metal is poured onto a spinning atomization disc means whereby liquid metal droplets leave the disc means in a horizontal plane. An annular cooling gas jet flowing normal to the particle plane around the disc deflects the heavier liquid droplets to a conical splat plate which is fixed to rotate with said disc, where the droplets splat and cool, and are ejected by centrifugal force. An annular space is located between said conical splat plate and said rotary atomization means for permitting the gas and other solidified particles to pass downwardly to a shield which directs the particles to a collection area.
