This new line, installed late in 2016 at AQUA Group, is now producing 250 moulds per hour, resulting in a casting output of approximately 1,000 tonnes per month.
The results are impressive, according to Mr Sathyamurthy, VP Foundry Division at AQUA Group: “Our new DISAMATIC C3 moulding line is state of the art and completely automated. It’s enabling us to ship castings within 12 hours of purchasing the raw material - and all that with a team of just 30 people. That’s a pattern tonnage of 30 tonnes per head.”
The line was installed in record time - only 6 months from the order date - and has achieved all its targets in terms of reduction in sand consumption and increase in yield, etc.
Mr Sathyamurthy continues: “The upgrades to our moulding lines over the past decades were all geared towards increasing our overall productivity and quality, while at the same time reducing the cost per part. Together with DISA, we have achieved this and continue to move forward on this path. Our productivity is outstanding, as is the quality and surface finish of our castings. What’s more, our world-class facilities provide our workers with a clean, safe and aspirational working environment.”
