High-performsnce advantages for the highest requirements

The cold box process is a high-performance,highly productive core manufacturing method that is used in larde series production of cast parts in particular and features high process reliability and productivity.The defining feature of the cold box process is its high reactivity,which makes short production cycles possible for core production.ASK Chemicals has not only succeeded in further developing the process in terms of productivity but also with regard to humans and the environment.Our cold box systems offer you the following advantages:

The advantages for the environment and your staff

Reduced odor in core production and casting

  Low emissions of BTX gases

  Low monomer content

  Low-odor,nonhazardous solvents

    The  advantage  of increased productivity

   Faster cycle times thanks to high reactivity

   Higher tool availability thanks to lower contamination from condensate and a lower tendency for adhesion.

   Time saving since cleaning the core box requires less word.

   Long sand bench life thanks to high strength.

    Theadvantage of increased quality

   Fewer casting defects thanks to process-optimized binders.

   High dimensional consistency of the core

   during production and while the coating is drying thanks to high strengh.

   High dimensional consistency during casting thanks to high deformation stability.

   High core quality and stability thanks to high process reliability and high strenghs.

    The advantage of cost reduction

   Reduced binder consumption thanks to higher efficiency

   High tool availability thanks to lower contamination from condensate and a lower tendency for adhesion

   Fewer cores are rejected thanks to higher stability

   Reduced catalyst consumption thanks to high reactivity
