At the start of 2016 we were commissioned, by one of the major alluminum foundry multinationals, a new project in their plant in France. The project, part of a larger schedule for the renovation of their automotive cylinder head production, consisted with the substitution of an old two positions casting line with a new more advanced system that could guarantee a high flexibility and a production rate of 13 parts/hour for each casting bench, respecting the ergonomy and safety of the operators.

THE SOLUTION

The reduced space of…
