Our Production
On 2,200 m² of production space at our site in Sülzetal near Magdeburg, our well-coordinated team of qualified specialists meets all of our customers’ requirements for quality, cost and delivery, day in, day out. Every year we ship approx. 500 t of mineral casting components to customers worldwide.
We produce components with unit weights from 0.5 kg to 50 t (3 overhead cranes / 2 × 10 t / 1 × 50 t). Depending on the order, we can currently cast up to 3,000 inserts – such as threaded bushings, piping, guides or support plates – into these assemblies.
How we manufacture our mineral casting components
Step 1
Setup
We set up the pre-assembled mould, together with the picked inserts, on a vibrating table.
Step 2
Pouring the mineral compound
At room temperature, we pour our epoxy-mineral compound EPOROC® into the prepared mould. This is done under continuous vibration to compact and de-aerate the material.
Step 3
Curing
Depending on the formulation and the system selected, the mineral casting now cures for between 2 and 24 hours.
Step 4
Demoulding
This is followed by dismantling the mould and demoulding the component.
Step 5
Final assembly + bonding and quality control
After demoulding, we mount linear guides and add-on parts where required. For larger projects, we bond several individually cast and pre-assembled mineral casting components together – rigidly and precisely measured in all axes. Finally, each component undergoes final inspection according to the inspection plan.
Step 6
Delivery
We deliver the finished component by truck to a satisfied customer.
