About company
Iron foundry in Kutno was built in the years 1972-1975 and was meant to provide casts
to agricultural machinery industry. Foundry was set up on the strength of a Japanese
Licence and was the most modern casting Mouse in Poland at that time.
Productive Capacity
The foundry is a manufacturer of iron casting in the following grades: gray and nodular
iron with weight of 0,5 - 60 kg and overall dimensions of max. 900x700x250/250 mm.
Annual productive capacity amounts to 33 thousand tons. The foundry provides also
as-cast condition or casts produced through heat treatment, painted casts or casts
made through rough or full, thorough, mechanical working. Manufactured casts are
employed in variety of branches:
- automobile industry (braking system, hydraulic systems, engine parts, gear lever ect.)
- industrial water-gas fittings,
- construction equipment, mining machinery, agricultural machinery,
There are two following departments in the foundry:
- Metal Melting/Foundry Moulding Shop/Core Shop Department,
- Cast Working Department
Metal Melting/Foundry Moulding Shop/Core Shop Department is an object of 17 500 m2
area and the cubage of 268 600 m3. The department’s equipment consists of Japanese,
German and Danish production appliances:
- 2 cupolas of the capacity of 6T/h, equipped with automatic loading appliances and with
full dust extraction and SO2 (coming from flue gases) bounding,
- 2 crucible furnace of 5T capacity each, power frequency and 3 channel furnaces
of the capacity of 2 x 14 T i 1 x 20 T,
- Junkers metal melting furnace, of medium frequency and the following work variables:
capacity of 8T/h, equipped with multifrequnecer (a device for frequency change from
250 Hz to 125 Hz in order to get a precise mixture of metal), of low energy
consumption (515 kWh/ T), power of 4 000 kW, fully automated temperature system
control (intelligent coil), automatic precise system of charge weighing
- ABB three automatic machines for casting (year of installation 1990), with nitrogen
protective atmosphere,
- two automatic moulding flask lines under high Sinto Kogyo pressures and Disamatic
MK3 2013 line for flaskless moulding,
- complete automatic moulding sand processing station of the capacity of 240T/h,
- drying station and station for preparation of moulding materials with store silos,
- core shop equipped with: core sand processing station, 13 coremaking machines
in „hot-box" technology, 7 coremaking machines in
„cold-box" technology, including
two Lempe coremaking machines, core drying line,
- complete hall dedusting system,
- device for spheroidization with pure,
- reclamation of moulding sand station.
Cast Working Department is an object of 16 400 m2 area and the cubage
of 170 000 m3.
Department is equipped with the following devices of Japanese production:
- automatic transport system and core cooldown system,
- electric and gas fork lift trucks,
- tumbling barrels (5 pieces) and hanger castling cleaning plant (1 piece),
- cast heat-treatment furnaces (1 piece),
- cast profile grinders (20 pieces),
- draught paint shop,
- maintenance steel foundry,
- cast machining seats: roughing machine tool - 5 pieces,
precise machine tools for working (numerically controlled lathes, drills, grinders,
balancers) - 15 pieces,
- laboratory rooms equipped with: ARL spectrometer from Switzerland,
(CNC) coordinate measure machine of German production, resistance parameter
testing machine (tensile testing machines, hardness testing machine), microscopes
for examination of material structure.
In 1999 Polish Research and Certification Center granted to our laboratory a Research
Laboratory Accreditation Certificate for complying with PN-45001 standards and
ISO/IEC 25:1990 guide.
