In addition to casting-related technical benefits, INOTEC technology offers process-related advantages over conventional processes. Particularly notable among these are the significant increases to productivity in the casting process and a drastic reduction in the consumption of resources for maintenance and servicing work.

Due to the absence of organic components, the use of the INOTEC system does not result in the buildup of condensation, which in turn reduces the amount of cleaning involved. Investment in air treatment measures is also saved, making INOTEC a cost-effective alternative.

Benefits:

• Shorter solidification times owing to lower permanent mold temperatures and thus shorter cycle times
• No buildup of condensation and therefore increased availability of permanent molds
• Much less cleaning required
• No need for air treatment
• Improved cast part qualities
