Coreshooter "TM 40 - R"

The Coreshooter B 60 GSE-I is an advanced machine designed for producing core boxes, capable of operating with various configurations, including:

• Two-part vertical split core boxes
• Three-part core boxes (two vertical parts and one bottom part)

This machine automates the core shooting process, ensuring efficiency and precision through hydraulic control systems for all movements.

Key Features

1. Hydraulic Controls:

   • All movements are controlled hydraulically, including the operation of the core box, ejection of hardened cores, and the positioning of the upper part of the machine.

2. Frame Configuration:

   • Rear Frame: Holds the rear half of the core box, positioned hydraulically and remains fixed during the automatic cycle.
   • Front Frame: Facilitates linear movement and closing/opening of the core box using hydraulic levers.

3. Clamping System:

   • Each frame is equipped with four hydraulic clamps for securely locking the core box, requiring uniform dimension plates.

4. Position Control:

   • Linear encoders and transducers are utilized to measure and transmit positions to the control panel, ensuring accurate operation.

5. Movable Upper Section:

   • The upper part of the machine, including the tank and shooting head, is controlled by hydraulic cylinders, allowing for efficient operation.

6. Feeding and Cleaning Mechanism:

   • A feed hopper with an electric vibrator ensures consistent sand supply.
   • The gassing plate features scrapers for cleaning the blowing head and core box.

7. Interchangeable Shooting Head:

   • Comes equipped with a shooting head that has interchangeable inserts, enhancing versatility.

8. Control and Monitoring:

   • Features a comprehensive hydraulic control unit and an electric control panel with a Siemens S7 PLC for automation and monitoring.
