Partially Refurbished FRECH DAW 125 F Die Casting Machine
As part of an extensive partial refurbishment, the FRECH DAW 125 F is technically inspected, cleaned, repaired and repainted. The defined scope of work supports the reliable continued use of this proven hot-chamber die casting machine.
Which die casting machine is offered partially refurbished?
The machine offered is a partially refurbished FRECH DAW 125 F hot-chamber die casting machine. It undergoes a detailed technical inspection and preventive maintenance work.
The scope of work includes cleaning, inspection and machining of important mechanical, hydraulic and control-system components, followed by functional testing and fine adjustment.
What does partial refurbishment mean?
During a partial refurbishment, defined assemblies and functions of a used machine are specifically inspected, repaired or renewed.
Unlike a complete general overhaul, the scope of work focuses on selected machine areas and components that are relevant to reliable operation.
Systematic condition assessment
Mechanical, hydraulic and electrical functions are inspected and assessed for their condition.
Work on selected components
Wear parts, seals, pipework and other defined components are inspected or renewed.
Adjusting and testing the machine
After reassembly, the machine functions are tested and fine-tuned for reliable operation.
Inspection and machining of the locking unit
The locking unit is a central assembly of the die casting machine and is dismantled and inspected for wear as part of the partial refurbishment.
Removal and wear inspection
The locking unit is removed so that the relevant components can be accessed and inspected.
- Structured dismantling
- Inspection for wear
- Assessment of mechanical components
- Preparation for reassembly
Inspection of pins and bushings
The tolerances of the associated pins and bushings are inspected.
- Inspection of fits
- Assessment of wear condition
- Inspection of mechanical guidance
- Basis for reliable movements
Machining of important surfaces
The fixed and moving platens are milled. The tie bars are rechromed.
- Milling of the fixed platen
- Milling of the moving platen
- Rechroming of the tie bars
- Preparation for assembly
From cleaning to fine adjustment
The work is carried out in coordinated stages so that the selected machine areas can be inspected, repaired and finally tested.
Cleaning
The machine, furnace and hydraulic tank are thoroughly cleaned.
Dismantling
Defined machine assemblies are removed for inspection.
Inspection and renewal
Components are inspected, machined or fitted with new parts and seals.
Assembly and painting
The machine groups are assembled and the machine is prepared for repainting.
Functional test
A general functional test, adjustment and fine-tuning are carried out at the end of the process.

- General functional testing and fine adjustment
New FRECH operating unit and inspected machine control
As part of the partial refurbishment, the machine receives a new FRECH operating unit with a conversion kit from IPC1412 to OT1315 978092 and a CPU MX213.
The machine control system is also inspected so that the existing functions can be verified and the final fine adjustment can be carried out.
New FRECH system
The existing operating unit is replaced by the solution defined in the scope of work.
IPC1412 to OT1315
The specified conversion kit updates the existing operating and control technology.
CPU MX213 and functional testing
The CPU MX213 is included in the conversion scope. The machine control system is then inspected.
Inspection of important hydraulic machine functions
The hydraulic system controls important movements and functions of the die casting machine.
The injection system, ejector, locking cylinder, hydraulic valves and hydraulic pump are therefore inspected as part of the defined scope of work.
Removal, inspection and new seals
The injection system is removed and inspected. New seals are then installed.
Wear inspection and resealing
The hydraulic ejector is removed, inspected for wear and fitted with renewed seals.
Inspection of the cylinder function
The locking cylinder is dismantled, inspected and rebuilt with new seals.
Inspection of hydraulic components
The hydraulic valves and hydraulic pump are checked for proper function.
Inspected central lubrication and renewed pipework
A reliable lubricant supply supports controlled movement and protects mechanical machine components.
Inspection of the central lubrication system
The function of the existing central lubrication system is inspected.
Replacement of the lubricant distributor
The distributor is replaced as part of the partial refurbishment.
Renewal of the lines
The pipework associated with the lubrication system is replaced.
What are the benefits of the technical inspection?
Targeted inspection and preventive repair can support the continued use of the machine and reduce unplanned production interruptions.
Extended service life
Inspecting and machining important components can support the continued service life of the machine.
Reduced downtime
Preventive maintenance can reduce unplanned machine downtime.
Optimised performance
Functional testing, adjustment and fine-tuning support stable machine operation.
Cost-effective alternative
Partial refurbishment can be more economical than completely replacing the machine.
Assembly, repainting and general functional testing
After the selected components have been inspected and machined, the machine groups are reassembled.
The die casting machine is then prepared for painting, repainted and subjected to a general functional test with adjustment and optimisation.
- Assembly of the refurbished machine groups
- Inspection of the mechanical functions
- Testing of the hydraulic movements
- Inspection of the machine control system
- Preparation of the surfaces
- Repainting of the die casting machine
- General functional testing
- Adjustment and fine-tuning
