Moulding

Toowoomba Metal Technologies primary moulding facility comprises a Georg Fischer air impact automatic moulding line, and auxiliary equipment. The moulding line was commissioned in 1987 by the Swiss manufacturer and renouned foundry technology company, Georg Fischer.

Able to produce 120 moulds per hour this line provides customers with the security of knowing that volume requirements will be readily met.

In addition to the main line, our moulding facility incorporates an automatic pattern changing unit with sand supplied by a Georg Fischer STM30 high intensity sand mixer, and three cooling lanes provide castings with a controlled rate of cooling.

The outside moulding box dimensions are 890mm x 660mm x 300/300mm. However, the suggested usable dimensions are smaller then this size. We would be pleased to discuss your product's dimensions to determine if it is appropriate for the moulding box.

Mould shakeout is performed in an inhouse designed tubular rotary mould cooler. Return sand has the metallics separated, lumps disintegrated in a Georg Fischer disintegrator and is cooled in a Kuttner fluidized bed cooler.

While we have a secondary moulding machine available, consisting of an Osbourne 730 AR moulding machine, box size 1230mm x 915mm x 380/380mm.
