Table Shot Blast Equipment

Table Shot Blasting Machine

Table shot blast equipment provides the versatility and flexibility to efficiently blast parts ranging from ten-pound gears to heavy fabrications.

These rugged machines facilitate cleaning, peening, deburring, profiling, finishing and many other surface conditioning tasks in metal-intensive industries. This involves casting, welding and fabrication.

For processing, parts are loaded onto a powered turntable which rotates within the blast envelope to provide 360° exposure to the blast stream. Models with an oscillating blast wheel, such as our 36″ Power Table, enhance blast coverage. Features like the swing door on our Table Blasters expedite loading and unloading by enabling the operator to swing the system’s door-mounted turntable in and out of the blast enclosure.

Foundry Coatings

Freedom foundry coatings for molds and cores are versatile, competitively priced (also weigh less per gallon), and cover without running. Coatings can be applied in multiple ways including flow coating, spraying, dipping, or painting.

Freedom Coatings come in both water and solvent carriers and can be used for all types of refractories. Cerabead coating is also available as a replacement to zircon. Freedom Coatings improve casting quality, decrease scrap and cleaning times, and reduce the cost of coating. Water-Based Coatings are available with color change technology to let foundry staff know when coating has dried.

Riser Sleeves

Midvale provides exothermic riser sleeves, insulating riser sleeves, and mini-riser sleeves to improve your casting feeding process.

Home » Products » Foundry » Page 3

Riser Sleeves

Riser sleeves provide insulation to reduce heat loss from the riser (insulated sleeves), to generate heat to maintain temperature from lost heat (exothermic sleeves), or do both. Sleeves provide consistency by reducing shrinkage and improving overall casting quality. Riser sleeves also reduce labor costs by providing easier riser knock off and a smaller contact area (breaker-cores).

The sleeves we provide to our customers are inspected for consistency in their density, roundness, and wall thickness, ensuring consistency in your process. They are also engineered to be used in all molding systems and molding machines with a variety of sleeve shapes to choose from (straight, necks, downs, domes, and more).

Exothermic Riser Sleeves

Create heat and reduce metal shrinkage with exothermic riser sleeves. The top of the sleeve lights off the metal to have it flow back to the casting, reducing metal loss. Also offer hot toppings to prevent metal shrinkage.

Insulating Riser Sleeves

Reduce heat loss during metal pouring with insulating riser sleeves.

Other Sleeve Options:

We offer riser sleeves for iron, steel, and nonferrous foundries. Many styles of sleeves are available including insulating and exothermic mixes. See below for types of riser sleeve shapes.

Straight Sleeves

Dome Sleeves

Round Neck Down Sleeves

Direct Pour Cups

Breaker Core Inserts

Mini Riser Sleeves

The Mini Riser is a highly exothermic sand riser that utilizes the relationship between the volume of the casting divided by the surface area, which is referred to as the modulus of the casting. Calculating this modulus will allow the exothermic riser to be positioned at the thickest section of the casting. The thickest section of the casting will be the location of the highest modulus, and the last part to solidify. Because of the high exothermic content, the mini riser insulating sleeve will burn hotter for a longer time and provide a greater feeding capability then a conventional exothermic riser or other exothermic foundry supplies.

-Works hard with no contamination of sand systems
-Even, consistent, prolonged burn rate – burn temperatures exceeding 2900 degrees Fahrenheit
-Many shapes and exothermic insulating sleeve blends and types are available
-Sleeves are designed for optimum feeding conditions, with or without breaker cores, natural, low cope height molding equipment, and more

Sand & Core Additives

Midvale provides sand additives that have been engineered to reduce costs and effectively produce quality castings in the foundry.

Home » Products » Foundry » Page 3

Sand Additives

Engineered Sand Additives are formulated to reduce or eliminate veining and increase penetration resistance in cores and molds produced with chemically-bonded sand. Silica sand expansion is considered a main contributing factor with veining in castings. HyperADD products are formulated using a blend of organic and inorganic technology to optimize casting quality.

Mudding Compounds and Core Pastes

Freedom Silver Daubs are built for for iron and non-ferrous applications and White Core Daubs are for steel applications. Freedom Foundry Products are premium products that are cost-effective and have been used by foundries all around the country to create value for a fraction of the price of competing products.

Key Benefits:

Benefits of Freedom Daubs include no shrinkage when dry and they do not peel back when being applied
Freedom Core Pastes are available in bulk packaging and competitively priced

Sand Casting Binders

Midvale offers premium sand casting binder formulations that have been developed using a unique continuous blending process to ensure your molds and cores have a strong bond at minimal cost.

Main types of sand casting binders:

Phenolic Urethane No Bake System

A Phenolic-urethane no-bake resin sand binder system uses a liquid catalyst as the curing component. The products are formulated to deliver optimal core/mold properties and economical benefits by allowing the operator to use a minimal amount of catalyst for complete core/mold cure.

Key Benefits:

Less Resin Usage per Core/Mold
High Tensile System with Low Catalyst Usage
Most Accurate Manufacturing Process In the Industry
Very Low Formaldehyde Level – Non-Recordable
