Overview
The
Rotary Casting Machine advances permanent
mold casting technology another step and
makes it the most profitable approach for
the modern foundries today. This high
production, completely automated system
can meet your needs for large volume
applications. We incorporate up to 12 of
our standard casting machines (#2H, #3HS,
#6H or RT machines) on one rotary table to
reduce cycle time in each station to as
little as 20 seconds.
As an
example, based on our 8-station
#2H Rotary Table, we have calculated that
eight seconds is necessary to index the
table between stations without inertial
forces affecting feed characteristics of
castings. Assuming a three minute (180
second) cooling cycle, this rotary system
will theoretically produce 120 cycles per
hour.
At 83% of
theoretical, it would be 100 machine
cycles per hour. At 100 hours per week,
this calculates out to 10,000 machine
cycles per week. If there are two
cavities, it will produce 20,000 parts
week . This will give a total production
of nearly one million parts per week.
