 from Beardsley & Piper (Simpson Technologies Corp.), Aurora, Illinois Aurora is the largest city in Kane County, Illinois. The city also lies within DuPage, Will and Kendall counties. As reported in the 2000 U.S. census, the city was home to 142,990 people, while the city's estimated 2006 population is 170,617. , offers the productivity of several jolt-squeeze molders and requires little more space than a single jolt-squeeze machine.

The matchplate machine uses a blowsqueeze molding method to produce uniform, high-quality molds. Variable height cope and drag In foundry work, the terms Cope and Drag refer to the upper and lower parts of a two-part casting flask, used in sand casting. The flask is a wood or metal frame, which contains the molding sand, providing support to the sand as the metal is poured into the mold.  allow the amount of sand to be controlled in relation to the height of the pattern being used. A larger volume sand magazine ensures proper blow filling of larger molds, and a butterfly valve sand gate controls the sand feeding without excess spill sand.

The molding machine is capable of producing more than 180 molds/hr without coresetting. However, easy pattern changing ability with the Roto-Lock quick change mechanism attaches and detaches patterns with the press of a button, allowing mold runs of as few as 25 to be cost effective. The molding machine also can be used with mold handling devices ranging from a simple conveyor Conveyor

Linear transducers provide precise table control and a graphic operator interface with PLC and color touch screen offer elements such as an advanced graphic diagnostic program, air pressure check feature and an operational parameter database with 5000 pattern parameters. Other features include automatically adjustable blow pressure and proportional hydraulic valving that promotes high machine cycle time.
