The bigger the casting, the greater the challenge

Foundries that want the highest casting quality and productivity must handle large pattern plates and heavy cores quickly, efficiently and safely while often dealing with complex, deep-pocketed geometries.

The DISAMATIC^® D5 meets the large casting challenge with ease. It features all-new hydraulics and a state-of-the-art control system, with a host of smart innovations and powerful automation options that handle large pattern plates, cores and filters precisely, quickly and safely.

Simple, robust and reliable with standardised components, the D5 is built for easy servicing, lower maintenance costs and a clean and modern working environment. The digital-ready DISAMATIC D5 is perfect for ambitious foundries that want a future-proof way to transform big casting production – and achieve the very lowest cost per casting.

Sustainable innovation

DISA’s sustainable innovation doesn’t just minimise a machine’s ecological footprint  – it makes sound business sense too.

The DISAMATIC D5’s energy efficiency and clever new features cut CO₂ emissions and reduce scrap – but they also deliver lower running costs, higher yields and greater productivity for large castings.

• A redesigned hydraulic system cuts oil consumption and keeps oil cleaner, with a patented, high-efficiency pump. Optional air cooling of hydraulic oil can eliminate water consumption altogether.
• Mouldability innovations like Adjustable Squeeze Distribution let your foundry produce a wider range of large, complex castings with higher quality and less scrap.
• The new Adaptive Pouring Position feature keeps the distance between the D5 and the pouring unit constant to minimise pouring cup movement, improving quality and line speed.
• Less loose or sticking sand means fewer sand inclusions, improved surface quality and less scrap. That’s why the D5 incorporates features like re-squeeze, enhanced sand blow-off and extra heating in the sand shot system and hopper.
