In December 2015, the Federal/State Working Group (LAI) issued its recommendations on limiting formaldehyde emissions. The tightened limit values laid down therein affect general operating permits for plants. With the expiry of a transitional period, these limit values will also apply to older plants from February 2020 onwards. For the foundry industry, the lowest limit values apply according to these recommendations. Today’s HA Cold-Box system no longer contain any free formaldehyde. This...

Thinking outside the box is worthwhile. EIRICH mixers are increasingly being fitted with torque motors for good reasons: They consume significantly less energy than conventional asynchronous motors. Torque motors also cause lower operating costs and run at significantly lower noise levels. Does an EIRICH mixer with torque drive also pay off for customers in the foundry industry? Johannes Oswald and Wolfgang Wörner have not the slightest doubt. When and why did the development of torque motors...
