V-process molding takes advantage of an abundantly available, totally reliable and almost free natural phenomenon to bind molding sand in place... Atmospheric Pressure!
With V-process molding you eliminate many of the costs and problems associated with conventional green sand and no-bake molding.
Because the V-Process uses clean, dry unbonded sand, you can forget about mullers and mixers, and costly sand reclamation and reconditioning equipment. Most V-Process users require only sand cooling and transportation, dust collection and simple screening to remove tramp metals.
Molding equipment is simple too. It can be limited to as few as five items (a vacuum system, Film heater, vibrating table, pattern carrier and flasks) or automated for higher production. There is no need for heavy, noisy jolt squeeze equipment, ramming of slingers.
The molding media is clean and dry therefore shakeout equipment is usually nothing more than a grate to allow the sand to flow away from the casting and back into the sand system. Fume and odor control is unnecessary in most applications.
Low operating cost
You not only save on the cost of sand binders but all of the cost of sand mixing, testing and disposal/ reclamation. Even pattern life is extended because the sand never touches the pattern and it is never subjected to the rigors of a conventional molding machine. Finally, V-Process produces castings with fewer imperfections and less scrap.

During the last years Belloi & Romagnoli has developed, together with the above-mentioned multi-piston technology, also the moulding principle based on air impact + high pressure. This choice has been made in order to make a modern and cost-effective technology available to all foundries, also to smallest ones.
The B&R COMPACT 4 moulding machine was designed for foundries that require high quality moulds at low-medium production rates. This machine will provide better quality and faster production rates than the typical jolt squeeze moulding machine. The machine uses air impact and a hydraulic squeeze to make the mould. The moulding media for this machine is green sand.

Moulding is the operation that allows to give shape to green sand in order to obtain impressions as equal as possible to the pattern.
This is one of the most important functions of the production process and deserves a particular attention both from a technical point of view (selection of the type of moulding) and from the point of view of the customization of the plant.

Teubert Unimat
for processing EPP and EPS
The well proven standard machine in solid steel construction with guide bars
|
|
We have taken the wishes of our customers into account. By using new construction techniques and materials, we have achieved a lower price level for our tiebarless TVZ series, which makes this premium technology even interesting in the EPS business.
The original TVZ design used a hybrid drive system of electric and hydraulic. At the request of our customers, a hydraulic drive system with separate driving and clamping cylinders is now implemented into the TVZ machines.
This is an example of the customer driven design refinements which have lead to both design advantages and cost savings, helping to offset the surcharge of the tiebarless molding technique.

The expansion of the product range by special particle foam materials such as Expandable PolyPropylene (EPP), Expandable PolyEthylene (EPE) or copolymers has also considerably improved the options available to the manufacturers of mouldings to open up new sales opportunities by means of new applications. These particle foam materials make special demands on the machine building industry in terms of an increased closing force for the moulds. Kutz shape moulding machines of the HP-line can be operated with a steaming pressure of 5 up to 7.5 bar.
Mouldings made of EPP are especially suited for impact loads because of their mechanical properties. Therefore they are used more and more in the automotive industry for quite a long time now. These parts are featured by a high energy absorption capacity, a wide temperature range, a good ability to restore the original shape as well as by a simultaneously available recycle ability.
Well known applications such as sun visors and bumpers are nowadays supplemented by knee pads or side impact protection systems as they are used to increase the passengers' safety. Kurtz has accompanied this development permanently or was ahead of it having the matching machine concept for every application available.

The standard product range of shape moulding machines laid out for steam pressures of 1.5 bar comprises steam chamber dimensions of 600 x 800 mm to 1,100 x 2,100 mm. Thus Kurtz can supply economic solutions for most applications.
Machine design is based on a solid closing unit with fixed and moving steam chamber and on 4 tie bars ensuring symmetric closing force by means of hydraulic cylinders situated on both sides.
The portal stand on the driving side provides easy access to the machine interior, shortening set-up times.
