A sustainable solution Performance-enhancing options 4 5 Designed to be safe, clean and lean The DISA New Generation machines offer the following advantages to satisfy increasing demands concerning health, safety and consumption: In-chamber spray for enhanced workplace air quality, prevention of wear on pattern plates and minimised consumption of spray liquids Easy maintenance access for a safe working environment and time efficiency Quieter operation for a more comfortable working environment • • • Prepared for air exhaustion from the moulding chamber for clean working environment Use of patented hydraulic pump system for maximum energy efficiency and minimum oil cooling energy consumption Optional air cooling of hydraulic oil to eliminate water consumption Manufactured using environmentally responsible materials and processes according to ISO 14001 certification • • • • Automatic Core Setting (CSE) CSE inserts cores automatically in the rear face of the last produced mould. A light curtain guard ensures easy, fast and safe access for the operator to insert cores in the core mask. Pattern Change unit (QPC/PPC) The pattern changer enables quick, semiautomatic pattern change. It makes pattern changing, even of heavy patterns, easier, faster and more precise, regardless of operator skills and routine. Automatic Pattern Change unit (APC) The fully automatic APC can change a set of pattern plates within a cycle time extension of max. 60 seconds. Mould Conveyor (AMC/PMC) The mould conveyor transports the mould string from the moulding machine through the pouring, solidifying and cooling zones. High-precision transport and synchronisation ensures no shifting, distortion or displacement of moulds. Optional additions and accessories Synchronised Belt Conveyor (SBC) The SBC extends the cooling zone. Available with 2 m sections to increase length, the SBC is powered by the mould conveyor drive mechanism to ensure transport of the entire mould string without mould gaps or mould deformation. Sand Spillage Conveyor (SSC) The SSC collects and conveys spillage sand along the length of the mould conveyor and can be extended under the Synchronised Belt Conveyor. Shuttle for foundries with limited space The standard DISA SHUTTLE configuration features two or three SBCs running side by side. This enables almost triple in-mould cooling time within a defined space without significant production loss. Computer Integrated Manufacturing modules (CIM) CIM modules collect, store and distribute process information along the entire moulding line, enabling real-time monitoring and reporting in order to optimise production process efficiency and quality. CSE with light curtain APC with integrated sand blow-off DISA SHUTTLE conveyor Mould inside DISA New Generation machine Remote Diagnostic Access (RDA) RDA reduces unscheduled downtime to a minimum through maximum support of the DISA line. A DISA engineer can connect directly to the VDU during troubleshooting for immediate assistance. DB_DISA_NG240_280_2010_print.ind8-9 8-9 10.02.2010 06:36:10
