Feeder sleeves and riser

Foseco’s feeding system products comprise a wide range of insulating, exothermic‑insulating, and highly exothermic sleeves designed to extend the solidification time of feeder heads. These sleeves are available in numerous designs and sizes, either open or closed, and can be supplied with or without breaker cores to meet specific foundry requirements.

By incorporating Foseco feeding systems, foundries can produce more castings per kilo of metal melted while lowering energy costs and increasing the maximum achievable casting weight. They also benefit from reduced sand and binder consumption, lower cleaning and fettling costs, and minimized melting losses of expensive alloying materials. Additionally, the improved efficiency of the process contributes to significantly reduced CO₂ emissions.

Sectioned exothermic sleeve (FEEDEX) on iron casting
High-strength, high-pressure, automatic moulding lines place extra demands. These products must be able to withstand highest moulding pressures, be simple to apply and provide consistent feed performance.

Application of KALPUR direct pouring unit
The KALPUR direct pouring process is the combined use of a feeder sleeve and ceramic foam filter. It is suitable for hand-moulded castings, and horizontal and vertical automatic moulding lines. The KALPUR process entirely eliminates the need for a conventional running system.
