We provide green sand molding line solutions to our customers with the colloboration of our global partners. As IDEAL MODEL; we choose the right type of molding machine and line, considering your casting part type, targeted capacities etc. and plan your foundry together. We also design molding, casting and cooling line either to supply them from our partners or produce them in our facility. You can count our over 40 years of experience in foundries at your service; in projecting, feasibility or consulting foundry prohjects.

Resin sand molding line is a flexible system is for casting piece weight and sizes. It could be flaskless or into flask. Even though it’s not very fast, some automatic lines can reach up to 15 molds per hour. It’s not suitable for very fast, bulk production but suitable for different sizes of casting pieces.

Patterns are made by foam material in these systems. While metal is poured into molds, foam evaporates. That’s why system is called “Lost Foam Process”. System is slower compared to green sand molding lines. Because there is no core used, complicity pieces and non-ferrous castings can be made easily.

Very complex castings and high precision, smooth surface quality can be gained with this method. These features eleminates need of machinery most of the time.

There is no need resin or bentonite addition into the sand in this method. Because binder is vacuum itself applied to mold. Fine dry sand is used as mold material. It’s slower compared to bentonite sand systems, but because of better surface quality, it can be preffered.

Casting parts made in aluminium gets more important in the sector each day and becomes an important alternative to iron and steel also. We can provide die casting systems for different type of materials mainly but not only limited to aluminium with our global partners’ support.

Riser sleeves avoid shrinkage just after casting while the part is cooling down. Sleeve gets into reaction with melt by burning and increases melt temperature to around 200ᵒC. Because of its caustic and flammable content, it needs no Oxygene for ignite. The sleeve is placed in the shrinkage area and avoids shrinkage when cooling down by controlling area temperature. They can be placed after of before molding and they are categorized as wet sleeve and dry sleeves.

INDUSTRY 4.0 implementation is crucial to foundries in order to increase traceability and cover technological needs. Production defects would be lowered down and halt of production would be avoided only monitoring process and progress closely and continously with the help of technological recording and monitoring systems and applications, sometimes even using artificial intelligence. We also get our global partners’ support when dealing with such INDUSTRY 4.0 applications in foundries with protecting informations, giving maximum security and trustable continuity.

There are many of factors effecting the quality of sand in foundries. Besides content of the melt, foundry sand quality is an critical input to reach desired quality in te product. Sand preperation must be done properly and surely must be controlled well. That’s why foundry sand testing equipments take an important role in that.
