DISA MAC: Mould Accuracy Controller

Get an offer

For the first time ever, foundries are able to spot and react to mould string inaccuracies in real time, and crucially, before pouring.

Only a perfect mould alignment can produce perfect castings. Misalignment - mould mismatch and gaps - cause casting defects which then need extensive rework, or have to be scrapped; it can also cause run-through, leading to mould line downtime. Even the most advanced foundries have limited means of identifying issues with mould alignment early enough to prevent them. In fact, they often won’t know until long after moulds have been poured and further processed. Due to this time delay, many more castings could be produced with the same problem. The DISA Mould Accuracy Controller (MAC) helps identify and tackle this problem. For the first time ever, foundries are able to spot and react to mould string inaccuracies in real time, and crucially, before pouring.

A new perspective on your data

The DISA MAC data can be easily monitored at the operator panel on the moulding machine, showing real time data on a range of dashboard, table and graph views. Through this, operators can monitor production and gain a better understanding of the behaviour of the line – leading to better control of mould production parameters. 

However, to enable even deeper analysis of the data, the DISA MAC also comes with a free basic version of the DISA Foundry Cockpit, a new data platform for foundry processes. It provides easy access to both historical and real-time data, turning it into actionable insights to improve foundry operations.
