The new installation is the third full System 3000 installation commitment during 2013.  Combined with two Mini-System 3000 installations and the installation of one automatic base treatment station to upgrade an existing System 3000 installation to the full System 3000 Plus capability, the new order marks the sixth installation of the year and surpasses the previous installation revenue record set in 2012.  Further installation discussions are ongoing, providing opportunities for additional installation commitments and revenue before year-end. "New installation activity is the strongest indicator of future CGI series production commitments and overall market growth" said Dr Steve Dawson, President & CEO of SinterCast.  "Three consecutive years of record installations, with increased footprint in Europe, Asia and the Americas, clearly shows SinterCast's leadership position, the market acceptance of CGI, and the demand for stronger materials."
