SinterCast Expanding Control, Analysis for CGI Production. SinterCast AB is introducing a series of technological updates to the third generation of its compacted graphite iron (CGI) process control technology, known as System 3000.

SinterCast Expanding Control, Analysis for CGI Production

This includes Automated Base Treatment Control, an extension of the feed-forward measure-and-correct process control that allows System 3000 to accomplish automated feedback control of the wire-feeding base treatment operation. The control logic is based on the automated input of chemistry, temperature, and weight for each ladle, plus the actual recovery measured from preceding ladles. The base treatment control capability is provided by a System 3000 package with two wire feeders that process accuracy and efficiency. Another change involves the Process Database. The System 3000 is capable now of collecting process data from the melting, molding, pouring and shakeout operations, and from the chemistry and quality control laboratories.

The metalcasting industry can be analyzed from an overall strategic perspective using the well-known "Porter's 5 Forces" as a useful starting point. Determining a company's business model, both the current model and the desired model, is also a key part of a growth strategy. Having a grasp of the foundry industry's competitive dynamics, as well as an understanding of business models, lays the foundation for building robust growth strategies capable of sustaining long-term growth. Metalcasting industry analysis Developed first by Michael E Porter in 1979 at Harvard University, "Porter's Five Forces" is now a bedrock tool used by business strategists. Force 1: Customer Bargaining Power. In the U.S. metalcasting industry, perennial overcapacity compared to demand has given casting buyers huge bargaining power.

The commissioning is scheduled for summer 2013. Toyota Kirloskar Motor favours diesel engine plant in India. ET reported that Indian operations of Japanese car giant Toyota is understood to have asked its parent to consider setting up of a diesel engine plant here, buoyed by the rapidly increasing demand for diesel vehicles. According to sources, Toyota Kirloskar Motor, the Indian joint venture with the Kirloskar Group has put forward its proposal to set up a diesel engine plant in the country after the Budget for 2012-13, which spared diesel vehicles from additional taxes. A source said that "With the demand for diesel cars in India rising very strongly, a request has been made to Toyota's Tokyo headquarter for a diesel engine plant in India.

It is very important to have more localisation to meet the increased demand.” The company has seen demand for its diesel cars rising significantly, especially on its latest two models sedan Etios and compact car Liva. In 2011, TKM sold 63,575 units of Etios and Liva, out of which 70% came from diesel variants. Daimler Trucks to Invest Around $200 Million in Detroit Diesel Engine Plant in U.S.
