Before: Compromise with malleable cast iron

A global producer of injection molding machines presented us with a special challenge. Previously, the customer's employees had bolted the cooling water distributor of a machine to the belt itself using malleable cast iron components. For this, all fittings had to be individually sealed with Teflon tape. In addition, it was millimeter work to align the 90° elbows precisely to each other. All this consumed a lot of time and manpower and had to be serviced very frequently due to the many screw fittings.

After: Dietzel one-piece with satisfaction guarantee.

On site, our engineers took a close look at the machine area. Using photos and drawings, they analyzed the customer's existing solution and designed a 3D model. Then they built a one-piece prototype, based on the Dietzel modular system. A one-piece component was only an option because at Dietzel, these can be bent, welded and soldered as if on a production line during the production of a series. Thus, during development, all superfluous pipe clamps and screw connections of the malleable cast iron predecessor disappeared. The cooling water manifold is also supplied with an electroless nickel coating to protect the component from internal wear and corrosion.

Such a simple solution is only available from Dietzel. The customer received a ready-to-assemble and tested component delivered directly to the assembly line. This saves him assembly and maintenance costs and he only has to dispose of it once.
