Foundry Products:
FCS-T Tilting Flow-Coating Machines

General Description

The FCS is designed for use with all flow-coating applications. The FCS combines the rugged durability expected from Palmer equipment with the productivity dictated by today’s advanced molding systems. With automatic PLC controls available, the FCS Flow-Coating System can easily integrate into your existing molding conveyor system.

Features

• Heavy-channel steel construction ensures years of trouble-free operation without flexure of the tilting frame.
• High load tapered roller bearings are standard on the primary pivot point for increased load capacity.
• Four-inch diameter appendage guide rollers ensure that the clamping assembly remains rigid.
• Full hydraulic operation provides for a robust power system, requiring minimal maintenance. Tilting is accomplished with dual six-inch bore heavy-duty series hydraulic cylinders. Clamping is achieved with a single six-inch bore cylinder, and push-off with a single four-inch bore cylinder. 
• Design features heavy-duty “Palmerveyor” for long life, easy service, and minimal preventative maintenance.
• Dual heavy-duty clamping jaws ensure that molds are secure prior to tilting. 
• Operator safety cage protects workers from potential hazards and gives them a sense of security during operation.
• High volume diaphragm pump provides maximum pump life and requires little preventative maintenance.
• Wash basin constructed of 3/16” steel reinforced for durability. Basin and construction material can be customized to fit the application’s exact needs.

Order Of Operations
