In die casting, managing heat effectively is a crucial part of the production process. An often-overlooked part of our fully automated cell is the quench tank. Quench tanks are used immediately after a component has been cast. Our extract robots take the part from the die, and then cool them in a quench tank, before taking them over to the trimming tool.

By using high-resolution X-ray imaging, we can quickly and efficiently identify and rectify defects and inconsistencies in our aluminium castings. This assessment can be done in real-time as parts are being made, which streamlines our production process while improving the overall quality of our products.
