Sophisticated Advances in Matchplate Molding Technologies

 

Hunter Automated Machinery introduces the XL Series of Horizontal Matchplate Molding Machines. The XL is the most technologically advanced matchplate molding machine built for today's foundries to produce the highest quality castings.

 

Hunter has completely re-designed the HMP to produce the XL. The XL provides foundries with features that increase casting quality, productivity and profitability.

 

Features include:

 

Autolock hydraulic pattern clamping system that eliminates the need for pattern bolt-down and provides true drop-in pattern changing capabilities.

Squeezelogic system digitally controls the compaction speed while monitoring the resistance producing a uniformly hard, superior quality mold.

Zero clearance, Stainless Steel Linear Guiding System that precisely maintains positive alignment of the Cope and Drag molds throughout operations at the squeeze station.
Detent cylinders, intergrated into a rigid platen, lock the drag flask in alignment with the platen eliminating mold shift.
Patented air assisted drag mold release allows for harder squeeze and higher speeds while drawing cleaner pockets.
