The Foam Replica Machine 5730 is designed for bonding foam sections of replicas together with hot melt glue.
This work cell comprised of two complete coating systems for dipping lost foam patterns in coating. Each system is completely automatic with the exception of loading / unloading clusters to / from the system and the loading of premix tanks.
This system is designed for special coating applications in the Lost Foam Process. This unit can be manually operated or used in conjunction with a robot to coat clusters of foam parts, which cannot be submerged or partially submerged.
Quench tank to be located in line with the scalping conveyor (or positioned convenient to an extraction robot) for the quenching of the casting clusters.
The Coating Tank is a vessel for dipping clusters in coating. Vessel, mixer, heating system, and controls are specifically designed for the lost foam process. The system provides more accurate control of the coating process for repeatability.
The premix tank will be located outside of the robot’s enclosure to provide normal operation, without interruption, during the operator’s loading of the premix tank. When required, the operator selects the desired coating tank, initiates and stops pumping the premix solution to the coating tank. This allows the operator to maintain control of the mixture level in the coating tanks.
This system is capable of automatically loading one foam cluster into the flask at the compaction station for two complete cycles before reloading. The system includes a shuttle table, vertical lift and rotating frame assembly.
The system will be designed using the most advanced technology currently available for controlling sand fill at the compaction station. The operation of this equipment will be integrated with and controlled by the compaction system’s control.
Sand Prefill System for applying bed sand to the flask. This enables cluster insertion prior to fill/compact. The prefill system allows more fill/compact time and/or faster cycle time. Also, a Cluster Insertion Station will be provided for the insertion of the assembled cluster into the flask. This allows the preferred orientation of the cluster for the fill/compact cycle, pouring and/or dumping process.
Automatic sand level monitoring is used during fill with a moving probe.
The Horizontal-Axis Compaction system is a patented vibratory sand compaction system for processing lost foam flasks.
Vertical-axis compaction unit is designed to compact dry, free flowing, lost foam casting sand.
VECTOR-FLO™ is Vulcan's patented vibratory sand compaction system for compacting lost foam flasks. The system provides a combination of features, flexibility and programmability not previously available for vibratory sand compaction systems.
Automatic Pouring System consists of an Automatic Ladler to pour lost foam flask and an Automatic Pouring Cup Manipulator. Furnaces are not included.
Mold Closing Device to accept cope and drag halves after core setting, and mate the halves for transfer to the mold conveyor system. Drag halves will be picked from the coring line and placed on a bottom board supported by a reversible powered roller conveyor. Clamping fixture will return to the cope, lift and rotate the cope and close the mold on the bottom board.
This hydraulically operated Mold Push Off Unit separates molds from the bottom boards and discharge them on to the shake out.
