MPI
Wax Injection Equipment
Productivity
through Innovation. MPI designs and manufactures wax injectors;
from a 50 lb jewelry machine to massive IGT presses. Automatic,
semi-automatic, C-frame and multi-station presses, as well as
wax preparation and transfer units, wax pumps, wax melters,
paste wax retrofit and wax transfer systems are available. As
the true leader in paste technology, MPI equipment provides
accurate reproducible patterns and increased productivity. Training
available.
MPI APAS Automated Pattern Assembly System
APAS is an abbreviation for Automated Pattern Assembly System. APAS
automatically places parts in perfect alignment, with perfect wax welds, and
uniform spacing on the runner system. Since multiple patterns are simultaneously
wax welded onto the runner system and the torching step is eliminated, there is a
major productivity gain. The uniform assemblies and perfect wax welds improve shelling and eliminate inclusions from undercuts. Casting yields can be improved through closer and more uniform pattern spacing and down stream processes such
as cut-off can be automated.
TIP Hydrogen Torch
The HT-150 produces a high temperature, safe, clean controllable
flame from micro-miniature to standard-sized work applications
at an operating cost of pennies per hour. This unit provides
high productivity and smooth wax welds with no undercuts.
WAAGE Agitated Dispensing Tanks
Available in 1, 5, 10, 25 and 50 gallon sizes. Bottom Sweep
blades and quick-opening, heated ball valves. Agitator motors
are controlled by a manual switch with thermal overload protection.
WAAGE Dip Coating Tanks
Available in rectangle or round, equipped with a cover, pilot
light and adjustable thermostat range of 150° to 550°.
1 pint to 50 gallon capacity.
Solidscapes Rapid Prototyping Equipment
Solidscape, Inc. is a leading provider of precision Rapid Pattern Making
Systems. Solidscape equipment can create a finished pattern directly from
a CAD drawing while preserving the accuracy and detail. The new models simultaneously shoot pattern wax and a separate support wax. The support
wax can be dissolved in a special solvent , thus improving yield and pattern
quality.
