Performal Case study

Tool insert engine cilinder

Case1 - Tool insert for engine cilinder
 

Performal™ technology allowed the porosity elimination due to the overheating of the cores in the valve seats.

Conformal cooling technology considerably reduced production scraps enabling a better repeatability of the process and higher density of the casted part.

Case2 - Automotive tool insert
 

The Performal™ tool insert allowed even part cooling solving all the soldering and overheating problems and reducing maintenance issues and production downtime.

Conformal Cooling technology reduced cycle time maintaining high tolerance respect and higher casted part mechanical properties.

Case3 - Automotive tool insert
 

Performal™ technology allowed the soldering elimination thanks to even cooling.

Conformal cooling technology considerably reduced production scraps enabling a better repeatability of the process, higher density of the casted part and soldering elimination.

Case4 - Automotive tool insert
 

The Performal™ tool insert enabled faster cycle times and solved the porosity problems.

Conformal Cooling technology reduced cycle time and increased the density of the casted part. The tool insert was built for an existing mould and was designed to reuse existing inlets and outlets.
