Core Leaching Autoclaves :
Specifically developed for the removal of ceramic cores within aerofoils and turbines, our core leaching range of autoclaves have been designed and manufactured to give optimum cycle times, whilst at the same time ensuring operator safety at all times.
The continuous use of caustic solution in process has led our development engineers to carefully select and fully test every component part fitted to ensure low maintenance and a long trouble free life. The combination of zonal heating control, and specialist insulation materials ensure maximum heating efficiency.
Our core leaching control software is a tried and trusted package, giving the user a touch screen interface, which shows the vessel status at a glance. Process parameters can be easily set up and adjusted to be job specific, all parameters pages are accessed by user password.
Full turnkey installations are available, from work platform gantries, caustic reuse systems, or auto flush and fill systems, all are individually adapted to meet the needs of every client.
