Continued collaboration with Eku Fren Markranstädt/Leipzig  August 2022 Following the success last year of collaborating with EKU Fren Kampana ve Döküm Sanayi A.Ş Turkey in developing a full core centre to produce cores for ventilated brake discs, Mingzhi Technology Leipzig is pleased to announce a second deal has been signed for a similar scope of equipment.

As with the previous project, the core centre will include an 8t/h sand preparation plant, a 60L (MP60) core machine, a robotic cell including the core manipulation by the Kuka robot, a deburring stage, a shuttle for visual control, as well as core coating tank and drying oven in partnership with Proservice (Italy). The core centre is designed to achieve a 50s cycle time including the post-core-making tasks and will be manufactured at the Mingzhi Technology plant in Leipzig Germany. It is planned for installment by January 2023. The production equipment will be positioned alongside the first core centre within the foundry.

With almost 60 years of experience and one of the essential foundries in this field, EKU Fren ve Dokum San AS manufactures brake drums and brake discs for leading manufacturers worldwide and exports their products to more than 55 countries on 7 continents. EKU has become one of the largest production centres in Europe today.

Mingzhi Technology is a forerunner in core shop equipment technology with almost 20 years of experience in two production facilities and foundries (Leipzig, Germany, and Suzhou, China), approximately 700 employees, and an annual turnover of roughly 100 million euros. A wide range of Mingzhi Technology core machines meets varying production requirements including hotbox, ColdBox, and inorganic. The latest addition to Mingzhi-s lineup of core shooters includes the MAs series and MDs series featuring intelligent operation controls known as MiCL. Our core centre solutions can be provided in a traditional layout or the most recent integrated packages known as MiCC (Mingzhi Integrated Core Centres).
