CONLEY S INVESTMENT REMOVAL SYSTEM

Conley Casting Supply Corp. is pleased to announce the successful development of our patented
Investment Removal System 250. This equipment has been designed to efficiently and quickly remove
the investment from Gold, Silver and Brass treed castings without resorting to the messy high temperature
quenching and high pressure water washing techniques that the industry normally employs.
The procedure for investment removal is two step:
1. The cast flask is placed on parallel rollers at the left station of the IRS-250. The operator activates
a switch which lowers the dual hammer system to contact the flask. A push button is then depressed
which causes the flask to rotate and also applies energy to the high frequency hammer system. This
operation fractures the investment freeing the investment laden "tree" from the flask.
Elapsed time step 1 = 20 seconds.
2. The tree still laden with investment is removed from the flask and moved to the second station to the
right side of the IRS-250. The "tree" is placed on the spring loaded reaction anvil "Button up" and
the right hand hammer system lowered to contact the "Bottom" thus holding the "tree". A second
button is depressed which applies energy to the hammer system. This hammer system vibrates the
"tree" at high frequency which causes the remaining investment to disintegrate and fall from the
Elapsed time step 2 - 30 seconds.
Total time step 1 and 2 less than 1 minute.
1. Operator can control energy going to hammer system so that thin sprues will not break from trees.
2. Operator has access to machine at all times with the unique pass-thru curtain. This allows operator
to straighten tree, sweep investment into chute, or to remove empty flask while the machine is
removing tree from flask or investment from the tree.
3. The unit is compact and can be easily moved to a location best suited for your operation.
4. The DC-300 Dust Collector is a valuable optional piece of equipment designed to prevent investment
particles from entering the work environment. The DC-300 is an auto-clean cartridge type system
with easy to remove dust collection tray. 300 CFM capacity.
