Features
- Adaptation to the molding line rate by quick, semi-automatic ladle exchange and by pouring during the move of the line.
- The exchange of the ladles (empty ladle vs. full lade) is triggered by push-button and then performed automaticaly by an artful designed ladle swing-out/swing-in device fixed with the machine.
- The FOX can pour also during the move of the conveyor. The machine moves synchronously with the conveyor, making up time for the ladle exchange, avoiding loss of production.
- Automatic, regular pre-pouring allowing to achieve an optimal pour.
- Lowering of ladle spout for pouring with minimal pouring height.
- Mg-treatment directly in the FOX pouring ladle, avoiding a further transferring of the iron, and lowers significantly the temperature drop of the iron.
- Compact design, needs very little floor space.
- Suitable for flaskless and cope and drag molding line. For cycled and continuous driven molding lines. For pouring grey and nodular iron, steel and aluminium.
- Easy operation by means of a simple control desk and Touch- Panel. The operator is located in the cabin of the machine, in a secure place, away from the pouring zone, or by remote control separated from the machine.
