These advanced conventional
industrial techniques with cutting-edge automation and control technologies, allowing for efficient, repeatable, and safe operations—significantly reducing or eliminating the need for human intervention during critical and potentially hazardous processes.
Automated Leaching Process: A Technological Leap Forward At the core of this innovation lies

ounded in 2005, Qinhuangdao FUGE Science & Technology Co., Ltd., based in China, specializes
FUGE’s intelligent leaching process, designed to remove complex ceramic cores made from silicon-based materials and shells formed from aluminum-based ceramics. These are typically used in high-performance components such as turbine blades and structural elements. Traditional leaching involves multiple steps, including the preparation of
caustic alkaline solutions, manual
loading and unloading of castings into leaching vessels, and post-processing cleaning. These tasks not only require extensive labor but also expose operators to potentially hazardous chemicals. FUGE’s automated line transforms
this paradigm. Through the integration of manipulators and robotic systems, the entire procedure—from chemical preparation to cleaning—is carried out with minimal human contact, significantly enhancing worker safety, reducing labor
consistency and throughput.
