ZB4018P High-position Flat-cut Grid Casting Machine

The ZB4018P high-position flat-cut grid casting machine is a newly developed model by our company. Its scrap shearing system adopts an innovative flat-cut design. The cutter and grid collecting system are arranged on the same plane as the grid conveying path. This greatly reduces grid deformation caused by impact during grid casting, improves grid yield and cuts waste & defective parts in production.

Equipment Features

1. Main drive: Mold opening/closing and quantitative molten lead feeding are controlled by stable and reliable pneumatic components; other movements adopt mechanical transmission for high stability and reliability. The main machine speed adopts frequency converter for stepless speed regulation, featuring wide adjustment range and simple speed setting.
2. The lead feeding system is equipped with two independent lead supply valves. One controls the on/off of molten lead, and the other is for quantitative lead feeding. This prevents damage to the casting host caused by lead valve malfunction, and facilitates maintenance of the quantitative lead valve to reduce machine downtime.
3. This machine adopts high-position lead pot for lead supply. It features low installed power and no lead pump agitation, so a large amount of lead dross will not be generated.
4. For the lead scoop, the heating tube power can be increased to 3 kW without gas combustion.
5. The mold temperature is controlled by thermocouples installed on the mold to switch the electric heating tubes. Mold heating control and temperature display are independent: the real-time mold temperature can be displayed as long as the main control switch is turned on, even when heating is off. Mold heat preservation is realized by circulating water control.
6. The lead scoop thermocouple controls the on/off of its electric heating tube to achieve automatic temperature control of the lead scoop.
7. Flat cutting design: The cutter system and collecting system are on the same plane as grid conveyance. It avoids grid deformation due to impact on the chute plate, inclined cutter and during collection. Grid deformation in casting is remarkably reduced, greatly improving grid forming rate and production efficiency.
