Foundry Sand Conditioning Case Study by Solex - Solex

Foundry Sand Conditioning Case Study

The Solex heat exchanger proves to be a great value-added system. According to Waupaca Foundry Assistant Production Manager – Coremaking, Adam Kurszewski, the systems required zero maintenance. Foundries may also realize quality improvements and cost reductions through reduced core scrap and rework of cores. Casting scrap and salvage have also been reduced through the optimized use of binders.

Sustainability: Environmental Stewardship at Waupaca Foundry

Sustainability: Environmental Stewardship at Waupaca Foundry

Iron foundries are the ultimate recyclers, creating new products by recycling old iron castings and scrap steel. But melting metal requires large quantities of energy and we're doing our part to change this reality in substantial ways. Waupaca Foundry maintains a formal sustainability program with four key areas of focus, along with specific objectives we're striving to reach by the year 2020:

Recycled Foundry Sand to Create Future Sledding Hill in the City of Waupaca

Waupaca Foundry continually uses, reconditions and reuses the sand that helps to make our high quality gray and ductile iron castings. Sand that can no longer be used for creating quality iron castings does not have to end up in a landfill.

Technology Gives Old Materials New Life

Technology Gives Old Materials New Life

Recycling and reusing is not a new idea for the foundry industry. But bringing used foundry by-products back into the molding and casting process... That's news. In February 2013, Waupaca Foundry will be the first in the United States to install state-of-the-art sand reclamation technology at Plant 2/3 to reclaim used sand for the foundry. This experimental pilot program will bring new value to old sand and help reduce Waupaca's dependence on new-sand purchases.
