High Performance Chill Blocks

With voestalpine forced venting Chill Blocks, we combine first-class material know-how with our tailor-made solution for every application requirement. The patented voestalpine ripple design, using a large gap size (up to 1.3mm), enables a consistently high venting performance. During the opening process, the special ripple geometry leads to a self deformation in the area of the forced venting during the opening process, and thus lowers the removal forces combined with high process reliability.

This innovative solution is ideally suited for harsh foundry conditions thanks to its robust steel design. Furthermore, low downtimes and less maintenance increases the OEE for our customer, which directly leads to improved productivity.
