Foundry Automation, which was established in 1965, is one of the world leaders For a list of heads of state, see . World leaders is a MMORPG. The game involves creating a state, joining an alliance and going into war. It is mostly played by players from Israel, China, USA, Britain, Brazil and Saudi-Arabia. for the supply of equipment for cast iron and aluminum foundries. The ever-increasing utilization of aluminum and magnesium in the foundry industry, allowed Foundry Automation to increase the range of the products offered and therefore increase the number of its customers. Also, Foundry Automation is about to introduce a revolutionary and technologically advanced system for core production and decoring. This new system will be officially presented at the GIFA show in June 2003 with a pilot plant that will reveal itself as one of the most significant new solutions of the entire show. Foundry Automation is pleased to announce the introduction of a new patented system, FOUNDRY AUTOMATION-HYDROBOND[R] for the complete inorganic production of foundry cores, now made available for worldwide sales and distribution. By developing an inorganic bonding agent system, FOUNDRY AUTOMATION-HYDROBOND[R], has taken up the task of addressing the growing technical and specifically environmental requirements for bonding systems used in the foundry industry. This inorganic bonding agent system called Hydrobond[R] was being developed at several foundries that use this bonding system in their production. This system is characterised not only by the fact that it does not give off any emissions during core production, storage and pouring, but also by its disposability. This means that the cores and/or the bonding agent are water-soluble. Foundry Automation announces the introduction on the market of a new section of its business, the Green Sand preparation division, which includes a cooler, based on a totally new concept. Another significant part of Foundry Automation's business is the Low Pressure casting machines, for the production of alloy wheels Alloy wheels are automobile wheels which are made from aluminum or magnesium metal alloy. Alloy wheels differ from normal steel wheels, because of their lighter weight, which improves performance. and safety parts in the automotive industry The automotive industry is the industry involved in the design, development, manufacture, marketing, and sale of motor vehicles. In 2006, more than 69 million motor vehicles, including cars and commercial vehicles were produced worldwide. . The multi injection technology and the quick die-change will allow the foundries around the world to be competitive in the production of aluminum castings. Today Foundry Automation is a true specialist in the supply of full automated and robotized turnkey plants, which in conjunction with the process automation, are in a position to meet any requirements both of the captive and the independent foundries in the iron and aluminum sectors.

Benefits include: * Improved shakeout Shakeout A situation in which many investors exit their positions, often at a loss, because of uncertainty or recent bad news circulating around a particular security or industry. Notes: During the dotcom boom and bust, numerous shakeouts occurred. . Studies show that GMBOND[R] maintains better collapsibility than PUCB systems. * Allows for sand and binder reuse. Because GMBOND[R] is water soluble, it allows sand and binder to be reused. * Emission reduction. GMBOND[R] provides significant worker health and environmenta] benefits. Testing by the Casting Emission Reduction Program (CERP CERP Continuing Education Recognition Points CERP Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (United States Army Corp of Engineers; South Florida Water Management District, and other Florida state agencies) ) has shown that it can reduce emissions up to 89 percent for aluminum and 99 percent for iron castings. Background GMBOND[R] was developed in the early 1990's by researchers at the General Motors Research & Development Center. Their goal: to identify a binder that was strong, non-toxic, and environmentally safe. GM eventually narrowed in on protein-based biopolymers and looked to Hormel for their expertise in proteins. This partnership led to the development of GMBOND[R], which Hormel holds an exclusive, worldwide license to sell to the foundry industry. CERP recently received government funding to implement and test GMBOND[R] at the Saginaw Malleable Iron (Metal.) iron sufficiently pure or soft to be capable of extension under the hammer; also, specif., a kind of iron produced by removing a portion of the carbon or other impurities from cast iron, rendering it less brittle, and to some extent malleable.

Equipment exhibits in Stand 15 / E47 include a new 90 degree curved two-way conveyor, an inclined trough conveyor and a shakeout with specially fitted deck for aluminum castings. The company's energy efficient bi-directional conveyor utilizes just one motor and a flat stroke design for quiet, flexible process flow in either direction -- with minimal damage to castings. Material flow is easily reversed by changing motor rotation. Typical applications may include scrap charge weighing and feeding, casting sorting, mold dump conveyors, and bad heat shakeout. Inclined conveyors like the unit on exhibit are also designed to help improve productivity by moving materials up steep inclines. They help to maintain continuous production flow and can eliminate pits and inefficient skip hoists and bucket elevators A bucket elevator, also called a grain leg, is a mechanism for hauling flowable bulk materials (most often grain or fertilizer) vertically. Early bucket elevators used a flat chain with small, steel buckets attached every few inches. . Special capabilities include lump breaking during conveying as well as ultra high temperature capability. Multiple trough capabilities are available for special applications that require high material load capacity. The shakeout on exhibit at GIFA is fitted with a special deck designed for reduced noise and to protect aluminum castings from metal-to-metal contact. In addition to casting protection, the high frequency, two-mass shakeout removes sand rapidly for loads up to 100,000 pounds. The sub-resonant natural frequency uses less energy and greatly improves sand and casting separation.

The panel substrate is a dense refractory that will not break down or weaken when bath temperatures exceed 1500 F. Element wire is rated at 2000 deg. F. Parallel Wiring Schematic isolates unexpected panel damage to a single panel and allows for easy replacement. If a panel does fail there is minimal impact on the rest of the panels allowing continued operation without fear of damaging additional panels. Large cool zones will not develop as the result of a single panel failure (1/12 of total input gone) which minimizes the effects of oxidation on the crucible and increases service life. Finally, longer lasting element panels and crucibles mean more uptime on the furnace and better productivity. Insulation package lowers outside casing temperatures at 140 F or less. This improves operator safety and working environment. And keeps heat in the furnace where it should be! Aluminum casters like Federal Mogul and Hayes Lemmerz have taken advantage of MMS ER Retrofit Kits to lower costs and improve furnace uptime.
