Company HISTORy Müller & Wagner was originally founded by Georg Müller and Heinrich Wagner to manufacture foundry machinery. After demolition in the year 1945, the restart followed under the name of Heinrich Wagner. In 1975 Wagner Sinto was established as a sales company for vacuum moulding plants. In 1983 the present association with the SINTOGOKIO Group was established, making the company part of the largest manufacturer of foundry machinery worldwide. Facility Amalienhütte 2
HWS is a member of the worldwide Sintokogio Group, Japan, and is today a leading manufacturer of moulding machines and related products for lines manufacturing high-quality moulds for foundries. Our facilities are located in Bad Laasphe. Departments for administration, development and design, assembly of moulding machines and lines and for the associated hydraulic and electric equipment are all distributed between three building complexes at this location. Our branch works Amalienhütte, not far from the main works, comprises the machine shop and fabricating department. Complex welded structures are produced and machined using modern CNC-controlled machines. The sawing centre, integrated into this plant, operates fully automatically. Our range of activities Analysis, Consultancy and Project Planning Design Engineering Mechanical Manufacture Internal Performance Test/ Pre-Assembly Installation at Customer s Site Training and After Sales Service 3
Wide Ranging expertise Expertise in each of the relevant areas provides the basis for the high reputation that our company enjoys in the foundry industry. Our customers can rely on the quality of our products in the best tradition that Made in Germany implies. On the basis of the experience gained over several decades by HWS engineers and other specialists in the field of design and installation, the highest levels of operating reliability of the installed equipment are guaranteed: the knowledge acquired in the development, manufacture and commissioning of more than 500 plants world wide makes a vital contribution. HWS knows that meticulous attention in the design and manufacture of every detail, such as the basic steel structure, the hydraulic system, the switchgear cabinets and controls, etc. will each play an essential part and must be under in house control. Responsibility for the complete project and the quality achieved will thus rest with a single source. Customers specific requirements can be considered and accommodated efficiently and with minimum delay. Our substantial team of well trained service per-sonnel means that service can be provided on site with flexibility and reaction times are short. Furthermore since the control systems incorporate remote diagnostic facilities, in many instances problems can be solved on this route. 4
Technology for perfect casting HWS has been designing SEIATSU moulding machines and plants since 1983. The SEIATSU air-flow squeeze moulding process has undergone steady development and results in perfect moulding quality. Advantages of excellence in the castings are enjoyed equally on simple castings as well as sophisticated automotive products. 5
In recent years the advantages of the vacuum moulding process have been found to be also particularly valuable for larger size components such as castings for the railway industry. 6
The flaskless moulding machine type FBO for high quality castings is a compact machine. As a result the time required for installation is kept to a minimum and production can commence after only a short period of operator training. HWS has developed automatic pouring machines for optimum mould finishing. The temperature, flow rate and quantity of melt are all precisely controlled. As a result all the castings of a pro-duction batch will be of homogenous and of consistently high quality. 7

Flaskless Moulding Machines Type FBO Moulding machines of type FBO produce flaskless moulds with horizontal joint. FBO machines are supplied as turnkey projects and installed at floor level. The sand filling system facilitates the production of accurate moulds using bentonite-bonded moulding sand. The uniform sand compaction guarantees the production of high-quality castings even if these involve deep pockets and thin walls. inside sizes mm 900 x 700 compl. moulds/h 160 80 Vacuum Moulding Plants V-Process This moulding process is based on the generation of a vacuum that deep-draws a thermoplastic contour film over a prepared pattern and that maintains the mould rigidity of the bonder-free sand during pouring and cooling up to the shake-out process. inside sizes mm 420 x 420 3500 x 3500 +spezial sizes compl. moulds/h 2 50 Pouring Machines and Automatic Pouring Units HWS automatic pouring machines with rotary changer of pouring ladles permit the continuous pouring of iron, grey cast and nodular iron material without affecting the cycle time.

MPS Multi Pouring System The Multi Pouring System permits the cost-effective production of castings of aluminium or grey cast iron in large-scale production with guaranteed process reliability. With the Multi Pouring System, the foundryman may choose to either pour with the low-pressure process or with the conventional gravity process. There is a variety of possibilities to produce castings individually. Software for Foundries The HWS research team provides various programs for the functional optimization and sequence control of modern moulding plants. The Production Monitoring System A.L.S. 2010 and the program P.D.C. 2010 (Plant Data Collection) have proven their worth in the foundry practice a long time ago.
