Dosing Furnace Retrofits and Modernization Services
Improve the Performance of your Current Equipment

Modernise your equipment
Upgrade to ProDos 3 Control
- Our retrofit kit allows you to upgrade all older control generations to the new ProDos 3 control
- Improvement of the dosing characteristics using the new option
- Optimum process reliability, high resistance against electromagnetic disturbances
- Error analysis and process optimization using remote diagnostics tool
- Optimized process visualization as well as operating messages and error messages
- Expanded functionality and dosing accuracy using integration of biscuit correction or DISPO 035 interface
- Expanded transfer of dosing data and measured values to the die-casting machine
Upgrade to biscuit correction
- Minimization of the ‘out of tolerance’ rate, thus reducing the reject rate
- Constant communication with the die-casting machine and automatic optimization of the dosing quantities in the production process
Flanged riser tube
- Rapid replacement of the wear part and reduction of system downtimes
- Reduction of the dosing rates outside of the tolerance range
- The melt cannot be contaminated by hydrogen
Flanged riser tube with PneuCo
- Even lower dosing rates outside of the tolerance range
- Elimination of all mechanical (i.e. wearing) parts for the dosing contact
- Rapid replacement and reduction of system downtimes
SMS error messaging Module
- Automatic forwarding of operating messages and error messages to mobile end devices
- Improvement of the operating and process reliability in unmanned operation at night or at weekends
Rim cleaning jet for riser tube
- Reduction of the dosing rates outside of the tolerance range
- Reduction of the effort required for cleaning the pouring rim of the riser tube
- Improvement of process reliability and operating safety
Gray iron funnel with remote control
- Optimized shape for maximum flow rates and more rapid filling
- Cleaning process simpler and faster compared to lined funnels
- Reduced absorption of atmospheric oxygen
Pre-fabricated refractory interchange-part
- The relining concept can be carried out on site in the foundry
- Reduction of the energy consumption in comparison with current relining concepts by means of improved insulation
- Extremely short heating up process after completion of the work as the refractory inter-change part is delivered in the pre-sintered state
Refractory relining, optional replacement furnace body or leased furnace
- Ensures the complete drying out of the refractory material
- Makes costly and time-consuming operation with flushing batches unnecessary
- Includes painting of the furnace body and subsequent pressure test
- A complete replacement furnace body allows even more rapid replacement on site as only installation work is now left to do
- Furnace relining at the StrikoWestofen factory
