Casting technology for Iran
Rautomead International Ltd, UK, has recently supplied two horizontal continuous casting machines to Noghreh Joosh Sadaf Co., Iran, for the production of a range of silver-bearing and other brazing alloys. The larger of the two machines, RT 400 model, is designed for casting billet up to 115mm Ø in single or twin strand configuration. The continuous billet casting process provides a significant advance over the earlier technique of static mould casting, giving much greater consistency of quality and higher process yield. The continuous cast billet is cut to length to suit the following extrusion process:
The smaller machine, model RM 050, has been configured to cast small diameter rods of as little as 3mm Ø, also in twin-strand configuration. Continuous cast rods are then coiled onto spools, using a pair of rod coilers also supplied by Rautomead.
By casting the brazing alloy rods directly to the finished size required, the intermediate steps of billet casting and hot metal extrusion are neatly by-passed.
