Abstract

Methods used to double the production of a foundry are described in this paper. As floor space was limited the mechanical-handling equipment selected differs from what would be used if buildings and equipment were designed at the same time. Conveyors were installed for handling castings, for continuous moulding, pouring, and sand handling, and for taking raw materials from the yard to the cupolas.
