Assessment of Systems for Mechanisation of Casting Production

A. Fedoryszyn

Abstract

Using data on the world production of castings, the situation of foundry industry in Poland was evaluated with emphasis put on the produc- tivity of domestic foundries. It has been observed that an increase of productivity requires a wide-scale mechanisation of the equipment used for casting production on modern foundry moulding lines. Modernisation of foundries is expected to help in creation of optimum conditions for casting production, satisfying all the requirements regarding quantity and quality of castings produced. Modern designs of moulding lines were described, including moulding machines and the related equipment.
