4 sets of Industrial Manipulators for Foundry are ready to be delivered to Russia.
Casting Manipulator, also known as Foundry Manipulator, is the core automated equipment in the foundry industry. Specifically designed for the complex working conditions of foundry workshops, Foundry Manipulators feature a mechanical structure as the framework, paired with drive and control systems. They enable precise grabbing, handling, and positioning of cast workpieces, fundamentally replacing manual labor in high-load, high-risk repetitive operations, and serve as key equipment for the automation upgrade of modern foundry production lines.
POURING MANIPULATOR plays an irreplaceable role in the casting process. From precise flow control in the molten metal pouring stage, to the transfer and stacking of castings after forming, and even auxiliary operations for mold opening and closing, it is adaptable to various processes such as sand casting and permanent mold casting. Through program presets and sensor feedback, it can stably control pouring speed and position, significantly reducing error rates and safety hazards caused by manual operations.
Wankun's ZJZ series hydraulic casting manipulator performs particularly prominently in IRON & STEEL foundries. This series adopts a high-strength hydraulic drive system with a load capacity of up to several tons, easily handling heavy-load tasks in steel casting such as the transfer of high-temperature ladles and the handling of large steel billets. Equipped with high-temperature-resistant materials and a sealed design, it can maintain stable operation in operating environments above 800℃, precisely coordinating with key links such as steelmaking, pouring, and cooling.
The Russian customer receiving the equipment this time is a well-known local iron and steel foundry enterprise, long dedicated to special steel production. To enhance the automation level and operational safety of its production lines, the enterprise was in urgent need of an adapted IRON & STEEL foundry manipulator. After multiple rounds of technical comparisons and on-site tests, it finally selected Wankun's ZJZ series equipment. The delivery of these 4 sets of equipment will help it complete the automation transformation of key production links, laying a foundation for subsequent capacity improvement.
