Sand casting

Sand casting

The sand foundry is equipped with an OMEGA automatic moulding line, where moulds with maximum dimensions of 1200x800x425/425 are made by furan resin sand technology.
Thanks to the modern moulding line it is possible to obtain castings of high repeatability with minimal machining allowances (reduced casting weight) and very good surface parameters. The line is equipped with a number of devices improving and raising the quality of manufactured castings. It consists of:

• mixer-slinger with an up to 20 t / h capacity,
• vibrating mould compaction table,
• automatic mould rollover machine,
• manipulators for mould handling and assembly,
• a set of conveyors and storage areas,
• vibrating knock-out grid, and
• a unit for moulding sand reclamation which reduces to a minimum the formation of unnecessary waste.

The production range of the sand foundry is very wide – we make castings in small, medium and large series. Castings made in piece and small lot production as well as castings of very large overall dimensions exceeding the dimensions of the moulding line are made on a hand-operated moulding machine. The backup foundry facilities include high-efficiency induction furnaces of 2x500kg and 2x1500kg capacity. Modern equipment allows for the production of castings weighing from 10kg to 1500kg.
