The foundry industry encompasses many different casting processes to produce a range of castings in different sizes. Learn more about the eight most common casting processes and the products Foseco supplies for these processes.
HPDC systems are highly-automated processes, and are designed for fast cycle times (less than one minute). Insulating refractory linings of the dies are therefore not used in HPDC processes (unlike in low-pressure and gravity die casting), as high heat transfer is needed to cool the casting as quickly as possible.
All Foseco products are born from the need to find better ways of producing better castings more efficiently and economically, and are the result of close collaboration with foundry operators the world over. Our approach is built on close personal relationships where it matters most - on the foundry floor.

Foseco’s feeding system products are a range of insulating, exothermic-insulating or highly exothermic sleeves designed to extend the solidification times of feeder heads. They may be open or closed and are available in a wide range of design and sizes. They can be supplied with or without breaker cores.
By using Foseco feeding systems, the following benefits can be achieved:
More castings produced per kilo of metal melted
Lower energy costs
Increased maximum casting weight achievable
Reduced sand and binder consumption
Lower cleaning and fettling costs
Reduced melting losses of expensive alloying materials
Reduced CO2 emissions
High exothermic spot feeder sleeves
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.
KALMIN sleeves are insulating, lightweight riser sleeves used to efficiently feed castings. These sleeves are highly resistant to dilation and provide superior insulating characteristics, with low smoke and fume.
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.
In addition to feeder sleeves insulating prefabricated feeder lids, refractory insulating padding in preformed components, metal producing anti-piping compound and exothermic insulating anti-piping compounds are available.
