MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT OF MOULDS

MOULDS’ MAINTENANCE

Aluminium die-casting moulds are subject to wear. The accurate design and the selection of the most suitable steel are certainly important factors that extend their life. But every mold need maintenance and adjustment during their productive process. The maintenance department handles directly this phase.

Thanks to our internal mechanical workshop we do interventions of ordinary maintenance on the tools and possible fixings to guarantee a better performance over time. In the die-casting sector the productivity and efficiency are indeed fundamental to realize high-quality products in the shortest possible time.

MOULDS MAINTENANCE: OPERATIONAL PHASES

Phase 1

Phase 2

Phase 3

The first phase consists in disassembling the mold, so that the operator can accurately clean the tool.

Our team makes an analysis of the wear parts and broken parts of the mould.

The operator runs test on the sliders, e.g. guides and slides of the movements, and a test on the wear parts (usually cores, inserts and casting gates).

Finally, our team remakes wear cores and inserts, and possible broken parts and casting gates are repaired by welding.

The tool is then assembled together and we check the closure and the settling of the mould.
