Moulding
Our moulding section consists of a sand reclamation plant, four semi- auto continues mixers that are capable to mix between 4 to 24 tons of sand per hour.
We also have various casting pits, for large castings. Casting simulation is done with the aid of specialized simulation software (MAGMA) to ensure that the castings feeding and running systems are fully optimized.
