Our Schiebersand filling device for ladles

CARBOOX – member of the INTOCAST GROUP OF EXPERTS - offers a tailor-made filling device for Schiebersand ladle well fillers. This facility assists in minimizing risks for man and machine while contributing to lifting ladle free-opening rates. The filling device features sensors, frequency inverters, filling level controller and PLC systems to guarantee process control and safety as well as precision with material filling events. This reduces the operator's exposure to high temperatures and workplace hazards. Reconcilability of addition processes by video data capturing systems is provided.
