 and the industry's suppliers. The industry will be a major focus for the company as it continues its North American expansion initiative.

"Our new foundry robots introduced recently are ideally suited for the demanding die casting requirements manufacturers face and this membership will help us better understand their needs," said Joe Campbell, director of strategic alliances for KUKA Robotics Corporation. "Die casters manufacture thousands of different castings in some of the harshest of environments. With over 17 different KUKA foundry robots to choose from we believe we have the right model for any diecasting application or environment."

KUKA Robotics' high performance robots with the "Foundry" option are ideally suited for demanding Diecasting, Foundry and Forging environments. These models offer superior heat and contamination resistance, for reliable long term service under the harshest of conditions. The line's floor mount robots consist of eleven different models that can handle from 16 to 500 kg payloads. The line's unique low profile shelf mount robots consist of six different models that can handle from 16 to 210 kg payloads. The company will be exhibiting 4 of its foundry robots this week at CastExpo in Saint Louis Saint Louis (l`ĭs), city (1990 pop. 396,685), independent and in no county, E Mo., on the Mississippi River below the mouth of the Missouri; inc. as a city 1822. St.  (booth #807).

Headquartered in Wheeling, IL, NADCA represents the world's most effective die casters creating the world's best products. Working with a North American die caster guarantees innovation, integrity, accessibility, and reliability. The organization serves as the voice of the industry, promoting growth and enhancing its members' ability to compete domestically in the global marketplace.
