Swiss Foundry

A Swiss foundry deemed that the production cycle of the die casting heat sink component was too long compared to other cast parts of similar weight and size. More disturbing was the fact that cast parts sporadically remained stuck to the fixed die half, instead of being withdrawn with the movable die. This led to time-consuming interruptions of production and eventually, lowered productivity. ProCAST was successfully used to diagnose this situation and to quan- tify the potential improvements.
