" Smart" Superheated Core Purge Air Systems

“Smart” Superheated Core Purge Air Systems (patent pending) allow foundries to elevate the temperature in the core box up to 800 degrees Celsius. The effects and benefits of installing this system are:

• Rapid dehydration of water based low emission core binders
     > Improve overall core room efficiency
     > Increase out of box strength
     > Improve use of low emission binders
     > Reduce cycle time to increase throughput

• High temperature purge for “traditional” systems
     > Aid in removal of high molecular weight solvent from
        newer organic binder systems
     > Reduce amine usage
     > Reduce core room odor issues
     > Reduce binder levels
     > Reduce scrap cores
     > Reduce cycle time to increase throughput

These systems are packaged to meet the unique needs of each individual customer. Depending upon the foundry’s requirements, different sized heaters offer varying air flows. The foundry may opt to retrofit the system using its current core box controls or to set up separate controls offered by Furness-Newburge, Inc.

Installing a “Smart” Superheated Core Purge Air System not only improves the working environment in the core room, but also establishes better relations among the foundry, its neighbors and its regulators. It is an environment improving technology with economic benefit for the foundry.
