Overhaul of Die Casting Machines, Foundry Systems and Machine Assemblies
FISS supports foundries and die casting companies with the overhaul, revision and modernization of used machines and systems. The aim is to improve performance, machine availability and production reliability – often much more economically than purchasing new equipment.
Overhaul for
- Cold chamber and hot chamber die casting machines
- Gravity and low pressure casting machines
- Furnaces, peripherals and assemblies
- Hydraulics, electrics and control systems
- Partial or complete overhaul
Alternative to new investment
Restore machine performance and extend service life
A professionally overhauled machine can be an economically attractive alternative to buying new equipment. Especially for die casting machines, casting cells and foundry systems, a technical revision is often worthwhile when the basic structure, machine concept and intended application still fit.
FISS offers overhauls in different service levels – from functional inspection and partial overhaul through to complete overhaul. Together with experienced partner companies, mechanical, hydraulic, electrical and control components are evaluated, repaired or modernized.
Service levels
Which overhaul scope fits your machine?
Not every machine requires a complete overhaul. FISS evaluates condition, application, production target and budget in order to define the appropriate scope.
Functional Inspection
Technical inspection of the machine, evaluation of relevant functions and assessment of necessary measures.
Clamping Unit Overhaul
Overhaul of important clamping units and assemblies to improve precision and machine availability.
Partial Overhaul
Targeted repair of individual assemblies, components or systems depending on condition and production requirements.
Complete Overhaul
Comprehensive revision of the machine including inspection, repair, modernization and optional commissioning.
Project process
From condition analysis to recommissioning
Evaluate Machine
FISS checks machine type, year of manufacture, condition, technical documentation, production requirements and planned use.
Define Scope
Together we decide whether functional inspection, partial overhaul, clamping unit overhaul or complete overhaul is appropriate.
Overhaul & Modernize
Mechanics, hydraulics, electrics, control systems and relevant assemblies are repaired or technically updated.
Inspect & Integrate
After the overhaul, inspection, documentation, optional reassembly, commissioning and integration into production follow.
Technical scope
Overhaul for machine, peripherals and production environment
FISS does not only look at the individual machine but, if required, also at peripherals, automation, process environment and integration into ongoing production. This allows an overhaul to be combined with modernization, automation or system adaptation.
- Overhaul of cold chamber and hot chamber die casting machines
- Revision of gravity and low pressure casting machines
- Overhaul of furnaces, dosing furnaces and melting technology
- Repair and refurbishment of assemblies, valves, spindles and components
- Modernization of hydraulics, electrics, control systems and process monitoring
- Expansion or automation of existing foundry systems
- Assembly, logistics, reassembly and commissioning after overhaul
Up to 50% lower cost
Compared to purchasing new equipment, a revision can offer significant cost advantages. In addition, machine availability, process reliability and technical equipment can be improved.
