FEATURES OF THE VERTICLE TURNTABLE HANDLING SYSTEMS


Whether you choose our compact single, dual, or multi-level system, Hunter’s HV Turntables are your most efficient option for handling flaskless green sand molds:

  • Flexible design allows for use in aluminum, brass, gray, or ductile iron foundries.
  • Systems reduce labor while improving air quality and working environments.
  • Hunter HV systems are pre-assembled, tested, adjusted, and disassembled prior to shipment so that installation simple and inexpensive, and startup is rapid, at your site.
  • Compact size and efficient hood design reduce CFM requirements.
  • Unique vertical storage is the most compact and efficient system available.
  • Molds are never bumped, jarred, or pushed mold-on-mold.
  • Inner row fume containment hood is a standard feature.
  • Outer row fume containment hood is available as an option.
  • Cast iron weights and jackets are machined to improve tolerances and parting lines.
  • Weights and jackets are vented to facilitate gas release.
  • Setting of weights and jackets is automatic and extremely precise.
  • Geneva drive provides an index, which is extremely smooth and controlled.
  • Center-mounted jib crane for pouring on the turntable is available.
  • Features high-speed automatic accumulating conveyor for storage of un-poured molds
  • Increases productivity by preventing lost mold production that can occur, due to metal delays
  • Pouring can continue during pattern changes or other brief interruptions
  • Conveyor length can vary in one mold increments to suit individual requirements
  • Elevated, automatic bottom board return provides unrestricted access to molding machine

Hunter HV Turntables are ideally suited to all types of manual or automatic pouring:

BATCH POUR

The turntable is loaded with un-poured molds, which are all poured at once. It is then indexed while molds are poured at a single location. Index can be either manual as controlled by the pourer or by the use of a preset timer. No molds are loaded or discharged during the pouring sequence. Pouring cycle is fast, reducing fade and temperature loss. This mode helps maintain mold production during metal delays, with faster and more accurate pouring, which reduces related scrap.

SINGLE STATION

Molds are indexed forward and poured while at rest. (Note: This is the most accurate and efficient way to pour.)

MULTILE STATION

The pourer does not wait for the turntable to index; he moves forward pouring for maximum speed and flexibility.
