01 / COMPLETE LINE OVERVIEW

Connect the production areas without reducing the process to a conveyor line.

Shell building follows a cycle, drying includes a controlled hold, and dewax remains separate from burnout / preheat. The overview shows the connected line logic rather than fixed equipment quantities.

Shell building is a repeated cycle. Wax trees move through slurry, drain, stucco and drying before the shell reaches its final-dry handoff. Optional wax recovery is shown as a project-dependent return route.

04 / LINE CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

Choose a supply scope that fits the project stage.

Investment Casting automation is typically section-based and process-dependent. Scope can begin with one machine, a connected section or a complete line.

01 / SUPPLY SCOPE

Single Machine Supply

For a replacement, capacity addition or one-stage upgrade.

  • Manual
  • Semi-automatic

Start from an existing machine interface, section requirement and practical project objective.

Discuss This Scope
02 / SUPPLY SCOPE

Section Solution

For a Wax, Shell, Dewax & Burnout, Casting or Finishing section.

  • Manual
  • Semi-automatic
  • Automated / Robotic Sections

Define connections, handling and controls around one coherent production area.

Discuss This Scope
03 / SUPPLY SCOPE

Complete Production Line

For a new foundry, expansion, process upgrade or automation upgrade.
