LINEAR CASTING LINE
The linear casting line
The Fill LINEAR CASTING LINE is a robotic casting line for up to four casting machines arranged in line for the production of aluminum parts using the gravity casting, tilt casting or rotacast casting method.
The concept
performed by a third robot that is also positioned on a linear axis.
The following work steps can be performed full automatically:
- Core feeding
- Insertion of the indivual cores or core packages
- Pouring of the molten aluminum
- Casting removal
- Casting discharge or direct depositing of the parts on a cooling rack
Features
- Fully automated robot casting line
- Two, three or four casting machines in stationary arrangement
- Double-die machines also possible
- Simple linking to cooling systems or to downline installations for e.g. decoring or raw part machining
- Casting, core insertion and part removal robots can be installed on either the upper or lower linear axis, depending on the number of casting machines and the casting method
