PERMANENT RELEASE COATING FOR CORE BOXES

FOR LONG LASTING RELIABLE RELEASE EFFECT

In cold box core production, release effect is provi-

ded by frequently sprayed release agents, mostly

based on silicon oil. These agents don‘t resist the

erosion of core sand. Opposite the shoot nozzles,

they disappear quickly. Resin starts sticking and

this area must be cleaned by hard methods. Huge

amounts of agent are consumed but don‘t solve the

issue.

FR54 is a cured, well adhering, robust

release coating for metal cold box core boxes.

It is non-wettable by core resins.

The coating resists the physical attack by a rebound

effect. It is non-wettable by resins. In that way it

resists several hundred - up to 2000 shots. Core

production has not to be stopped for cleaning inter-

vention over the entire production batch.

FR54 grants a reliable and efficient processing

in cold box core production. The tools are protected

against erosion wear and hard cleaning. No agent

dust on the production floor is to be expected.

FR54 spacer varnish is applied on metal

surface of the core box. To improve adherence,

a primer coat is available.

FR54 is available in disposable spray cans and as

liquid in metal containers. The coat is applied

outside the production in a well vented area of

the tool shop. It takes 2 hours for curing at room

temperature.

When hardened, the coated core box is put into

production. Then, no other release agent is spra-

yed at the production floor.

The coating provides reliable release effect in the

production of very filigrane cores for cylinder

head casting as well as for (much) bigger cores .

Coat layers are between 30µm and 200µm.

As no liquid agent is required, it is a dry system.

No slurry of sand and agent will affect the core

box tightness, no contamination of ambience is

to be expected.

Once worn, the coat can be easily removed by

ice blasting.

COATING SYSTEM FOR CYLINDER HEAD CASTING

FOR RELIABLE MOULD FILLING AND EXTENDED SERVICE TIME

Cylinder head casting is driven by high demands in

quality, soundness of the calotte surface and the

area around. The calotte area is actively cooled. No

surface irritation is allowed. In other areas, many

thin walled rips grant stiffness of the component.

These areas are often affected by misruns. The

mass volume production should not be interrupted

by coat maintenance interventions. These are coat-

related challanges in cylinder head LPDC/GDC.

The base coating Nanocomp V7HI adheres

well on the mould. It provides excellent mould

filling properties by its good insulation, ad-

justable by coat thickness control.

The nanoceramic Top Coat Nanocomp MM12

protects the base coat and avoids irritation at

the casting surface. This grants a highly im-

proved service time.

Nanocomp V7HI may be applied above 140°C.

This avoids moisture defects on actively cooled

mould sections after touch-ups.

Insulating ingredients provide good insulation,

when the coating is applied > 70µm. So, reliable

mould filling is granted. Thinly applied, it can be

used on the calotte side. This is the most suc-

cessful setting. Roughness and insulation effect

can be adjusted by dilution and coat thickness.

If a very conductive setting is (locally) required,

a fine layer of Nanocomp VL is the ideal,

smooth alternative.

With these base coatings, reliable mould filling

and good DAS-values can be expected.

Nanocomp MM12 is applied thinly on the base

coating. It provides perfect finishing and an ext-

remely extended service time. Coating related

process interventions are avoided for 1000 cas-

tings and more.

NANO-CERAMIC PROTECTIVE TOP COATING

IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY AND QUALITY IN LPDC/GDC

Nanocomp MM is applied thinly on the insu-

lating base coating in LPDC or GDC moulds.

With the heat energy of the floating melt, the

coat sinters to a robust ceramic.

Nanocomp MM provides a protective ceramic

layer on the roughness of the insulating base

coating. In that way it improves the robustness

of the entire coating system. Service time of

coating can be improved by factor 3 or more.

CeraNovis provides coating for ceramic and metal substrates

as well as highly insulating base coatings .

Ask the CeraNovis team or your CeraNovis dealer for advice.

Nanocomp MM12 doesn‘t provide own roughness

and insulation effect. It is applied thinly on standard

base coatings for aluminium permanent mould cas-

ting. The MM12 coat should only be 5-10µm. Con-

sumption is very low.

The blue colour of Nanocomp MM12 turns white

after sintering in situ with the melt heat while first

casting.

Nanocomp MM12 doesn‘t affects insulation effect

and roughness of base coating. It conserves these

properties.

The nano-ceramic layer prevents surface irritations.

This is highly appreciated in wheel casting.

Nanocomp MM12 provides protection against che-

mical, thermal and abrasive wear. Service time of

coating is significantly extended.

Improvement of 200% - 500% can be expected.

Efficient, Reliable and Extended Processing

Provided by Nano-Ceramic Top-Coating

Nanocomp MM is applied as ultra thin top

-coating on the fuctional (insulating)

coating on dies for aluminium permanent

mould casting.

It sinters with the energy of the melt he-

at to a robust ceramic layer and protects

the fuctional coating to provide required

insulation, release and melt flow proper-

ties for 3—8 times more castings.

Characteristics of functional base coating

are not affected, but only service time is

increased and surface finish improved.

Nanocomp MM

CeraNovis provides also a range of functional base coatings with different grades of roughness and

insulation. Coating systems for wheel production as well as for cylinder head production are

available. Ask HETPAN Overseas for more information.

PROCESS EFFICIENCY IN ALUMINIUM WHEEL CASTING

BY A LONG LASTING RELIABLE MOULD COATING

Casting 1000 wheels without shot blast interven-

tion is a challange in automotive wheel production.

The wheel must be free of porosity, surfaces must

be smooth.

Each intervention provides turbulences in proces-

sing parameters. It affects the process efficiency,

product quality and productivity.

The Nanocomp VL Base coating grants a brilliant

finishing and good mould filling.

The nano-ceramic top coating Nanocomp MM12 pro-

tects the base coat from erosion and chemical wear.

It grants an extremely long service.

In that way, the challange can be met.

Nanocomp VL was developed especially for

wheel casting. It is designed for the face side of

the wheel and provides a brilliant finishing. Other

parties require a highly insulating coating like

Nanocomp V7HI.

Nanocomp MM12 is a nano-ceramic top

coating. It is thinly applied to protect the base

coating functions by a ceramic film. Only 25-

40grs of coating are required to coat the entire

wheel mould.

Nanocomp MM12 provides same effect to other

base coatings. It is compatible to FOSECO D39,

D39ESS, D3950 as well as D140, D6 and D34.

Nanocomp MM12 exceeds the service time of the

base coating by its protecting effect. In addition,

it grants a smooth finishing and prevents surface

irritations.
