Quality through innovative manufacturing processes

We support you along the entire value chain with state-of-the-art systems and manufacturing processes.

The production of a cast part begins long before it is cast. In order to obtain a high-quality cast product, the right choice of material and comprehensive material consultation is elementary. We can then use the available 3D data to optimise the mould filling processas well as the cooling and solidification behaviour. Based on the design drawings, the model of the cast component made of wood, polystyrene, plastic or metal and the corresponding cores are manufactured.

Smaller cast iron parts weighing up to approx. 250 kg are produced on our semi-automatic moulding plant. With themachine mouldingthe mould is automatically transported through the system. This speeds up the entire process and increases productivity. With hand moulding we can produce large cast iron parts with unit weights of up to 4,000 kg. Our melting shophas two induction furnaces, each with a capacity of two tonnes.

Consultancy and design support

We support you in the design of cast components from the very first step.

CAD-supported simulation

Realistic calculation of mould filling and solidification behaviour

Model making

Precisely fitting models for high-quality cast components.

High-quality cast components are created using accurately fitting models. These can be manufactured and maintained in our in-house model making department. We use various materials such as wood, polystyrene, metals or plastics depending on the requirements. Our technical work preparation ensures that the model and moulding system are optimally coordinated to achieve the best results. Quality control of the models is carried out before and after each moulding to ensure maximum precision at all times.

Core making

Cores are the centrepiece of a casting.

Based on your specifications and our understanding of the process, we manufacture sand cores in our core shop using the cold resin process. Cores form the cavities in the subsequent casting and are fundamental to the design of the casting.

Melting shop

Where the iron becomes liquid

Our foundry's melting shop has two medium-frequency, inductive crucible furnaces, each with a capacity of 2 tonnes. We use steel scrap, pig iron and recycled material for charging. For the magnesium treatment of spheroidal graphite cast iron (EN-GJS), we use the wire spooling process. This ensures a high degree of accuracy in the magnesium analysis and enables different treatment quantities.

Block moulding line

Semi-automatic moulding line for small batches

The production process on our block moulding line is automated from moulding and casting to breaking open the moulded bales. Our automatic block moulding line enables flexible and efficient production of different batch sizes. This system is the centrepiece of our new iron foundry and offers maximum flexibility thanks to flaskless moulding. The automated process ensures efficiency even with the smallest batch sizes and enables the production of cast parts up to a unit weight of around 250 to 300 kg. Production is also environmentally friendly thanks to a powerful extraction system with energy recovery.

Hand moulding shop

For large castings weighing up to 4,000 kg each

Our hand moulding shop is characterised by short transport and communication routes to the core shop and melting shop. A powerful vortex mixer ensures the efficient filling of large moulding boxes. The generous space available offers our well-trained foundry mechanics optimum working conditions to ensure high-quality results at all times.
