Gravity Die Casting Carousel

Cores preparation 

Various devices and solutions for the preparation, transport and storage of sand cores that will serve the casting line. Each device is supplied with static or dynamic fixtures and auxiliary equipment designed according to the type of sand core.

Core setting

In order to automate the operations of inserting the cores into the dies of the gravity casting machines we use Gauss portal system or anthropomorphic robots of major brands. Each device is equipped with a special gripper specifically designed for the type of cores to be transported.

Pouring

In order to automate the operations of picking and carrying molten light alloy, from melting and holding furnaces, to pouring into the dies of the gravity die casting machines, we use customized Gauss system or anthropomorphic robots of major brands. Each pouring robot can be combined with one of the casting arms, single ladle or multiple ladles, designed and guaranteed by Gauss' experience and expertise. The pouring robots can be supplied with ancillary devices such as degassing units, ladle cleaning stations and ladle preheating devices.

Extraction

In order to automate extraction process of the cast part from the gravity die casting machines we use Gauss portal system or anthropomorphic robots of major brands. Each device is equipped with a special gripper specifically designed for the type of cores to be transported.
