About
At Pepetools, we design and manufacture industry-leading tabletop electromelters and induction melters right here in the USA. Built for jewelers, casters, and small manufacturers, our melters combine efficiency, safety, and precision temperature control —ensuring clean melts and consistent casting results, every time. Whether you’re working with gold, silver, platinum, brass, or non-ferrous alloys , our melters give you the power and reliability of large-scale industrial equipment in a compact, bench-friendly format . How Tabletop Electromelters Work A tabletop electromelter uses a high-resistance heating element, housed in a refractory crucible chamber, to directly apply controlled heat to metal alloys . Once powered on, the melter steadily raises temperature to the user’s setting, monitored by a digital thermostat for precise regulation. Even Heat Distribution: The element surrounds the crucible, eliminating hot spots. Programmable Temperature Control: Perfect for melting silver, gold, or custom alloys at exact temperatures. Compact & Safe: Designed for jewelry studios and small workshops with intuitive controls. This makes electromelters ideal for jewelers who need consistent, repeatable results for casting grains, ingots, or small pours. How Induction Melters Work Induction melters work differently—using high-frequency electromagnetic induction instead of a resistive heating coil. An induction coil creates a powerful magnetic field that penetrates the crucible, exciting the metal atoms and generating heat from within the metal itself . Rapid Melting Speeds: Reach full melting temperature in minutes. Cleaner Melts: Reduced oxidation and contamination compared to open-flame methods. Energy Efficient: Direct induction heating consumes less power than resistance heating. Versatile Applications: From jewelry casting to refining, induction melters handle a wide range of metals with precision. Induction technology is especially valued by professionals who need high
