By transporting two standard molds per manipulator, the LPDC2121 Pro sets new standards in the production of bathroom fittings, which is a significant improvement over already existing machines in the industry.
The introduction of this feature represents a significant advancement in production efficiency, nearly doubling the output of the previous leading model LPDC2121. With a shift output of around 550 castings and the capability to create 2 to 4 castings per mold, this system enables manufacturers to produce thousands of valves in a single shift. This great increase in production not only enhances throughput but also leads to a substantial reduction in unit costs. Such cost efficiency is essential in the highly competitive valve manufacturing industry, offering manufacturers a critical edge in pricing and profitability. Overall, this innovation is likely to transform production strategies and bolster competitive positioning in the market.
Thanks to the individual parameterization for each of the two manipulators, the machine ensures exceptional production flexibility, enabling precise adaptation to various requirements.
Many Innovations
The LPDC2121 Pro offers numerous innovative features that enable users to achieve optimal casting results. These include precise hydraulic position sensors, which allow for highly accurate movements, and Rexroth hydraulic components known for their robustness and durability. The newly designed automatic charging system, combined with automatic weight detection, allows for an optimal blend of recycled and new material, leading to more efficient resource utilization.
Induga’s focus on system safety and user-friendliness has been further enhanced with the LPDC2121 Pro. The new core insert door improves accessibility while ensuring maximum safety. Additionally, overall accessibility and operability within the system have been optimized, allowing operators and maintenance personnel to perform necessary tasks even during the casting process.
The induction melting and dosing furnace has been adapted to meet increased throughput requirements while maintaining Induga’s proven exchange concept. Customers continue to benefit from a pre-sintered replacement furnace, which minimizes downtime to just around two days during furnace replacement.
The LPDC2121 Pro offers significant advantages in terms of efficiency, flexibility, and safety, making it a pioneering solution for tap manufacturing.
