NAL2500

THE AUTOMATION for the largest parts ever produced to date in a shell mold.

It is a tilting machine for frontal casting, the largest built to date (weight about 20 tons) and can mount a shell mold of dimensions 1800 x 1500 x 1300 mm (weight about 12 tons). It is used in the industrial vehicles sector (IVECO) to produce the largest and most complex parts ever produced in shell molds

An automatic casting island with a Westofen Striko dosing oven with our NAL.2500/R machine with a mechanical piece unloading arm and a mechanical arm loading cores in sand, Production: about 50 pieces / shift – weight 60-100 Kg.

The largest universal front casting machine ever, model NAL 2500 is designed to efficiently meet the needs of foundries operating with large-size molds, while offering maximum reliability and continuity of performance.
Designed with a distance between the planes fully open at 2500 mm and a front tilting capacity from 0° to 40°, the NAL2500 ensures safe and precise handling of the mold, even in intensive production cycles.

The structure is very robust and has two movable mold plates. Each plate is moved by 2 hydraulic cylinders and 4 widely dimensioned chrome columns with respective guiding bronze bushings. All this ensures operational stability and flexibility during the opening and closing phases of the cycle. This configuration makes it ideal for plants that work molds in 2 or 4 pieces, with the possibility of integrating optional forward or rear units, depending on the desired configuration.

The NAL 2500 is optimized for the automotive sector and for serial production of large cast parts, where efficiency and reliability over time are fundamental. It can be configured for interfacing with automated systems and it adapts perfectly to continuous production lines.

The two extraction – ejection cylinders mounted on the plates make the universal shelling machine efficient and help speed up the work cycle, ensuring a smooth and high-performance process. Emphasis on simple construction and ease of adjustment reduces machine downtime and minimizes maintenance interventions.

The Upper Bridge, which has a Double stop, makes it very versatile, fast and complete in its class.

In the central part of the structure is positioned the Lower Table with an adjustable travel of 50 mm.

Available options: additional front and rear units, automated part unloading systems, core loading and robot for automatic casting or with furnace/chute, for a completely modular configuration based on the client's production specifications.
