Ceramic Core Leaching Autoclave

The CDS-50P ceramic core leaching autoclave provides the ideal solution for the safe and reliable removal of ceramic cores and shell material from investment castings. The CDS-50P allows for the removal of ceramic core and shell materials in the shortest possible time with no risk to the cast component.

All units are PLC controlled and operated via a HMI touch screen.

The Process

Castings are placed into baskets and lowered into the pressure vessel which is filled with an aqueous caustic solution. The pressure and temperature are increased, and the process begins. The cycle time depends on the ceramic composition, component geometry, leachant concentration, temperature, and the pressure the components are subjected to.
