PROSERVICE TECH

Defining and framing ProserviceTech is not an easy task because, despite the constant growth of the last 20 years, the PASSION for foundries and their processes is still our main drive.

We have passed on a visceral passion to all our co-workers together with the idea that every problem must be analyzed from all angles and that complexity generates opportunities.

Over the years, our customers have proposed increasingly varied and complex problems that ProserviceTech has transformed into products and knowledge.

Products:

ITACA

ITACA, born 20 years ago as thermal analysis software, has evolved continuously over time. ITACA today is an open 4.0 project that brings together machines and systems, new sensors, management software, latest-generation algorithms and, from 2021, also consumables.

ARENA

Since 2002, ProserviceTech has been actively involved at the forefront of the development of new solutions to improve all phases of core and mould handling and assembly, including drilling and gluing, encompassing the preparation, application, filtration, and drying of foundry coatings. These products are grouped under the brand ARENA.

TERRA

TERRA is a brand-new green sand reclamation plant based on an efficient thermo-mechanical system that "cleans" the sand grains of the main impurities while avoiding the formation of excess fines. It is the result of years of research and design drawing on ProserviceTech's experience.

ITACA Vision

During the inoculation process, it is important to consider not only the metallurgical quality of the iron, but also the quality of the inoculant flow.

ITACA Vision is the process control system developed to analyze and control the in-stream inoculation process, measuring the amount and distribution of the inoculant particles on the iron stream for each mould.

Overlay ratio synchronization

ITACA Vision quantifies, frame by frame, the quantity of inoculant introduced into the iron flow, together with the start and stop delay in tenths of a second. Was the inoculant present and in the correct amount? Was the inoculant flow correctly synchronized with the iron flow? With ITACA Vision, you can easily get answers to these questions.

Fully integrated into the foundry process

ITACA Vision has its own internal database that contains all the control ranges for each casting. When it is connected to the pouring devices, ITACA Vision automatically changes the working ranges according to the casting in production. ITACA Vision can be synchronized with other equipment based on a PLC, database or CSV file.

And that's not all!

Through the "Remote ITACA Vision Control," it is possible to use the alarms detected by the system to warn the operator through additional lights or acoustic signals, or to stop the pouring line directly, avoiding any further pouring with errors!

Forced inoculation with iron leakage alarm

Many foundries prefer to "correct" a problem in production with a temporary solution that allows them to conclude production and postpone the maintenance intervention to a better moment. For this reason, a feature has been developed that activates the "Start Inoculator" when ITACA Vision detects iron flow while the mould is being advanced. In this way, the first iron that fills the new mould will not miss the inoculation.

Iron-not-detected alarm

To increase the reliability of the system, which is necessary in a foundry environment, an alarm has been introduced that switches on if the camera does not see the cast iron flow during pouring.

In this way, any interruption of the camera's line of vision is dealt with immediately.

ITACA Pyro

The pouring process is influenced by various factors that can cause casting defects. The pouring temperature is one of these key factors.

By monitoring the temperature, the possibility of defects such as cold junction, sintering and cementite is reduced. ITACA Pyro was developed to assist foundries by continuously monitoring the iron temperature during the pouring process. Continuous measurement is important because the foundry must understand what is happening with each mould and not just have an approximate idea, averaged over a batch or a period of time.

ITACA Stream

ITACA Stream is a high-precision system for in-stream late inoculation that adds a controlled amount of inoculant into the iron flow during the pouring of the mould. It is equipped with a stepper motor dedicated to pipe rotation. Every step of the motor makes the pipe move 0.038 mm (for a 1 m pipe). It can be easily installed.

ITACA Stream is ProserviceTech's answer to late in-stream inoculation equipment. It is suitable both for new installations and for replacing existing inoculators. As part of the ITACA family, it can be integrated with ITACA Vision and ITACA X.

Dynamic flow rate adjustment with real pouring time

Connection to pouring systems allows synchronization with the stopper, stopping of the line and automatic management of the inoculant flow rate as a function of the real pouring time.

The inoculation needs to be a precise percentage of the casting weight. As pouring time can change, working with a fixed flow rate can lead to incorrect dosing.

ITACA Stream offers the possibility to recalculate the flow rate for each new pouring, based on the real pouring time.
