KINEMETRIX

ROBOTIC GRAVITY DIE CASTING

Modern part designs are demanding better and better process control over the gravity die casting operation.  Precise die temperature control, exact shot sizes, and rapid model changeovers challenge the traditional methods.

SERVO LADLE

Kinemetrix die cast solutions include a servo ladle that acts as a 7th axis to the robot.  This allows the robot to manipulate the ladle in tight spaces and still achieve an accurate pouring motion.  Advantages include:

Reduced system size uses less floor space

More repeatable shot size

Easy shot size adjustment

Agile! Programmed to provide different shot sizes for different products.

DIE CAST MACHINE

Kinemetrix Die Cast Machines are custom engineered to accept your die.  Hydraulic actuators manipulate the die components as needed to close the mold cavity for pouring and open it to allow extraction.

The machines are carefully engineered to operate properly and reliably at temperature.
