Information

Since 1962 F.lli Mazzon S.p.A. has been a reliable partner in more than 30 countries as for no-bake systems (furanic, phenolic, alkyd and polyurethane), cold-box and hot-box binders, insulating refractory coatings in alcohol and water, additives, glues, releasing agents and many other chemicals.

F.lli Mazzon has been operating since 1997 with a certified quality system based on UNI EN ISO 9001:2008 rules. In 2012 our safety system was certified according to OHSAS 18001:2007 rules and in 2015 the company implemented  ISO 14001 environmental certification.

F.lli Mazzon has recently been equipped with brand new chemical reactors: the company is now able to produce higher quality resins at competitive prices in shorter times. Continuous improvement of plants and equipment, such as our huge investment for the reactor, are constantly planned in order to cope with a competitive and demanding global market.

The CLP Regulation (EC) n. 1272/2008 entered into force affecting foundry binders too. F.lli Mazzon S.p.A. is already facing this change since we can already supply Cold Box resins (Leganol HD and HI series) and No Bake resins (Ecofur 5000 and 6000 series) with a low formaldehyde content: < 0,1%, which means they are exempt from labelling rules, and a free furfuryl alcohol content < 40%, which is to be considered as not toxic

Information

Since 1973, we have developed, designed and manufactured machines and plants for no bake foundrys.

In addition to mechanical reclamation, our portfolio also includes the thermal reclamation of used sand. FAT separates chromite sand and offers complete solutions for moulding plants with a high degree of automation. The components are designed and produced in our own work shops at Niederfischbach.

Environmental protection, sparing use of raw materials resources and ever higher demands on casting quality make a continuous improvement in processes necessary. Because of this economical, reasonable and sustainable recycling is becoming more and more important.

We take on these challenges.

Our products have been used successfully worldwide for decades. High reliability, extensive wear protection measures and long service lives, help to make production processes even more efficient. Scores of national and international customers in different industries benefit from the know-how and the experience of over 40 years company history.

Products & Services

MOULDING LINES

Foundequip’s moulding lines are realized for the production of castings in steel, cast iron, aluminium and bronze.

These installations are projected and produced in base of the requests of the Client. They could be in different sizes and for different types of flasks, all according to the Clients’ needs and also considering the dimensions of the place where they will be installed.

The heart of moulding lines is the moulding machine. Foundequip can offer to clients different types of moulding machine such as Multipistons moulding machine, “Silent Flex” moulding machine, FastLoop or Shot-squeeze moulding machine.

The more appropriate solution is suggested according to the Client’s type of production and it can be a stand-alone machine or installed into a moulding line. It can also be fully automatic or semi-automatic.

All these machines are realized to require minimum maintenance and they can guarantee a good castings surface and so reduce the moulding scraps.

SAND PLANTS

Foundequip’s sand plants are studied to supply different solutions for the green sand reclamation and regeneration. The importance to have good sand allows us to develop some solutions useful to improve sand quality, and so reduce scraps and increase the surface quality of the final product.

Our technical team offers the more suitable solutions to the client considering its specific needs, both in production, both in location availability.

The heart of these installations is the green sand mixer and the systems for the sand quality control.

The mixers are realized to permit a good quality of mixing with short cycle times which can be completed with devices for sand analysis. These devices are able to guarantee a sand with the required characteristics that become also uniform and repetitive during the time.

WE ALSO SUPPLY :

• Moulding machines
• Pneumatic transport systems
• Shake out
• Compacting tables
• Cooling drums
• Oxicombustion rotary furnaces
• Metallic conveyors
