Hybrid Process Cooling System
EMSCO, Inc.’s Hyprcool hybrid process cooling system utilizes an adiabatic wet- ted cooling tower for water system heat rejection. Te hybrid process combines the advantages of dry air cooling towers in the winter months and the advantages of fluid coolers in the summer months to provide highly effective heat rejection for foundry water system requirements. Te hybrid process utilizes a fine mist spray into the air prior to contacting the copper cooling tubes which lowers air temperature and increases the heat rejec- tion level of the unit. Te control system cycles individual fans as process water and ambient temperatures dictate, and it ultimately activates the water spray mist
when warranted. —EMSCO , Inc. 877-77-EMSCO • Fax: 330-833-3029

Vibratory Equipment
Te General Kinematics Vibra-Drum Dross Reclamation Mill quickly liberates precious metals from slag and dross in either a continuous or batch process. High energy vibration breaks down material up to 5 times faster than rotary or other types of reclamation devices, and the small footprint mini- mizes space requirements.—General

is the completely new
simulation software by MAG- MA. It allows the prediction and optimization of the critical pro- cesses in foundry engineering for all materials and processes. With its modular design, MAGMA5 contributes to cost reduction along the entire process chain of a casting component: from com- ponent design, tooling layout and prototyping, all the way through to process optimization.—MAG-
