The United States introduced a new aluminum casting technology

2010-01-06 07:01:53

United States Wagastaff (Wagstaff) is the world's famous aluminum casting equipment companies to provide DC to the global aluminum industry is known around the world casting equipment, not only that, but it also has many advanced aluminum casting technology.
    1.AirSlip gas-slip casting technology
    AirSlip Airslip Wagastaff company's most important technology is the technology, developed in 1982 and put into the market.
    So far, the global foundry with approximately 800 gas-slip casting production line, due to adopt the technology to produce products of good quality has always been the preferred technology for aluminum manufacturers.
    AirSlip shell area there are small features, with the use of traditional casting technology to produce the product than casting faster, more competitive production costs, products, grain structure, uniform and shorten the cycle time of homogenization, in environmental protection advantage is that the minimum fuel consumption, reduced cooling water flow rate.
    2.LHC aluminum slab casting technology
    LHC aluminum slab casting technology is Wagastaff's research and development of new technology, its quality can be produced by electromagnetic casting technology, compared to slab quality, but the cost of production than the electromagnetic casting slab lower. LHC casting slab with excellent product quality, high yield, resulting in less waste, low energy consumption, reliable performance characteristics, and because of the cooling water flow rate is low, to save energy.
    LHC aluminum slab casting technology is characterized by the Slab-die used in the oil to keep the system (oilretentionsystem), mainly in the casting process, eliminating the need to reach the oil to maintain a continuous lubrication system reduces the processing costs associated with cooling water. Oil to keep the system uses die tilt system to stop the trickle of die lubricant, reducing the casting units around the "oil splash", and make the oil into the cooling water system, less so in the foundry work around Taiwan staff to reduce the phenomenon of walking slipping.
    3. To ensure the safety of StopCast casting technology
    In the casting process to ensure the safety of the operator, Wagastaff the company developed a leak detection system, an aluminum tank StopCast system, which in the extrusion billet casting process, aluminum water leaks detected will be automatically disconnected when the aluminum continuous flow, the need time only for a few seconds; StopCast system is not installed, then the water will have to shut down Al-consecutive minutes, or even longer.
    AirSlip squeeze casting technology for the use of technology, production lines and StopCast further development still in progress.
    4. AutoFlo development of casting gas control technologies to enhance the level of AutoCastSCADA
    Wagastaff the company developed a gas-slip casting technology is used AirSlip gas control technology AutoFlo, and has been successfully used in industrial production, the user response to a very good use of the technology do not have too much involvement of the operator, thereby reducing operator exposure to aluminum water before the opportunity.
    Wagastaff Company further improved AutoCastSCADA level, to provide the latest hardware and software, SCADA, as AutoCast "special" feature, at the beginning of many foundries do not require that have this feature, but after several years of production practice, they agreed that, SCADA system to the foundry in terms of functionality is necessary.
