DTC Family
Die Thermal Control Systems driven by Thermography.

DTC 4H
Thermographic system for continuous mold surface temperature measurements in serial production.
Advantages of the Die Thermal Control System
The adoption of the DTC system brings tangible benefits, both direct and indirect, to the whole organisation.
Direct benefits
Controlled start-up ramps for die life extension
Preset start-up cycles for scrap reduction
Faster sampling of new dies, tools and castings
Optimized spray and lubrication cycle
Customized spray cycle depending on the release agent in use
Local and punctual measurement of temperature without thermocouples
View of thermal images in real time during process
Live view of temperature distribution of the fix and mobile die
Control and monitoring of the HPDC manufacturing process
ID map of the die
ID map of the casting
Series thermographic records during manufacturing
No stops of the HPDC cells
Indirect benefits
Improved surface thermal temperature distribution, with lower die thermal shock
Waste water reduction thanks to an optimized spray cycle
Correlation of casting parameters, i.e. casting defect and local die temperature
Improvement of casting quality (cold flows, shrinkages, porosities, die soldering…)
Improvement of productivity
Improvement of the OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) of the HPDC cell
Possible management of thermoregulation and cooling system
Possible interface with the spray equipment
