After a leading Chinese compressor casting manufacturer’s first DISAMATIC C3-350 arrived in December 2017, this green sand, vertical moulding line produced 10 million moulds within the first five years – and has now produced over 15 million moulds. The C3’s very fast pattern changes and low maintenance added over two hours extra production time per day compared to the (non-DISA) moulding machine that it replaced.
Despite its demanding 24/7 schedule and 2200-ton monthly output, this company’s first C3 continues to deliver extremely high uptime and a very low 1.2% scrap rate. Fitting original parts and choosing DISA service support are two reasons for its outstanding performance and reliability – which inspired this company to install a further three C3-350s at its Ma’anshan facility in Anhui province.
“The performance of the first C3 at Guangzhou gave us the confidence to buy more DISA machines,” says the General Manager of Ma’anshan facility. “Original DISA parts are accurate and stable after replacement, that’s the main reason we only fit original parts.”
