Automated Post-Casting Processes: Enhancing Efficiency, Quality, and Safety

Post-Casting Processes: Surface Finishing, Gating/Riser/Runner Removal, Sandblasting, and Cleaning

In the foundry industry, post-casting processes such as gating, riser, and runner removal, as well as surface finishing operations including grinding, deburring, and sandblasting, are critical to ensuring product quality and production efficiency. Traditional manual operations often result in low productivity, inconsistent results, and elevated safety risks. By integrating automation into post-casting operations, foundries can significantly improve throughput, maintain consistent part quality, and reduce worker exposure to hazardous environments. DS Technology provides advanced automation solutions, including robotic systems for cutting, abrasive blasting, and surface finishing, helping manufacturers implement smart production and enhance their market competitiveness.

Surface Finishing Processes for Castings

DS Technology offers two modular robotic surface finishing solutions tailored for different production needs in the foundry industry. The RTH-2TP Dual-Station Robotic Tool-Handheld Surface Finishing System features a robot that holds and manipulates a handheld grinding tool. This configuration provides high flexibility and is ideal for castings with complex geometries or varying part sizes. The RWH-3DF Robotic Workpiece-Handheld Surface Finishing System utilizes a robot to grip the workpiece and present it to a fixed abrasive tool. This setup ensures consistent contact angles and finishing quality, making it well-suited for compact or precision castings. Both systems are modular and engineered to meet a wide range of grinding and deburring requirements across different casting materials and shapes.
