Under the terms of the agreement, SinterCast will supply a Mini-System 3000 process control system and will provide engineering support to establish a robust process for the production of CGI components conforming to the international ISO 16112 standard. The SinterCast installation will enable Impro Industries, which specialises in heavy-duty and industrial power castings, to produce CGI components for the export market at its foundry in Yixing, Shiangsu, China. The Mini-System 3000 will be shipped during August 2014 and is planned to be commissioned during the fourth quarter of 2014. Initial series production is expected to begin before year-end. "This agreement marks our eighth installation in China and our fourteenth installation in the important Asian market, broadening our presence and brand awareness, and providing new opportunities to increase our production of components in the industrial power sector" said Dr Steve Dawson, President & CEO of SinterCast.
