Rolling Carriage Mounting System

Wagstaff’s rolling carriage systems utilize a motor-driven steel table mounting frame riding on an embedded rail system that allows the mold table to be safely rolled away from the casting pit, allowing pit stripping and table maintenance to take place simultaneously while enhancing personel safety.  Hydraulic or electric motors move the carriage by providing direct drive to two of the carriage wheels, and are fitted with shields to protect from possible metal spills during casting.

Reverse Tilt System

Wagstaff’s Reverse Tilt System utilizes a combination of hydraulic tilt arms and an embedded rail system to raise and rotate the mold table up and away from the open pit, positioning the mold side of the table away from pit stripping activities. This unique design allows table maintenance to take place concurrent with billet removal while enhancing personnel safety.Optional motor-driven rolling pit covers and elevating mold table maintenance platforms provide even further efficiencies and safety.
