InterGuss TopVac® Vacuum System for Die Casting

In high-pressure die casting, effective vacuum evacuation is essential for casting quality.

During die filling, air must leave the die cavity quickly. A controlled vacuum process helps remove air before molten metal enters the cavity.

InterGuss TopVac® is a vacuum system designed for both cold-chamber and hot-chamber die-casting processes.

Why Use a Vacuum System?

Air trapped inside the die cavity can cause casting problems.

Effective evacuation can help reduce these problems. It can also support more stable production.

InterGuss highlights several benefits of TopVac®, including:

• High evacuation efficiency
• Reduced scrap
• Increased productivity
• Reliable operation
• Low maintenance requirements

One System for Multiple Applications

TopVac® offers flexible vacuum control for die-casting production.

One TopVac® unit can control two high-pressure die-casting machines. It can also control one die and the shot sleeve.

Furthermore, one unit can operate up to four venting blocks.

This configuration gives manufacturers more flexibility when setting up their vacuum system.

Controlled Vacuum Evacuation

TopVac® does more than generate vacuum.

The system can:

• Measure volume flow
• Measure extracted air quantity
• Regulate evacuation speed
• Control the vacuum process
• Detect process faults

It also visualizes and stores vacuum graphs. Operators can set and monitor process parameters through the touchscreen interface.

Process Monitoring

TopVac® includes several features for monitoring the evacuation process.

These include:

• Humidity measurement
• Volume flow measurement
• Cyclone separator
• Error diagnostics
• Fault logs
• Production data storage
• Vacuum curve recording

The system can also connect to the high-pressure die-casting machine.

Flexible Configuration

TopVac® can be configured to match different production requirements.

Available options include:

• 300–3,000 litre tank capacity
• 25–160 m³/h vacuum pump throughput
• 1–4 vacuum channels
• 1 or 2 HPDC machines

The tank can reach a final pressure of less than 1 mbar absolute, depending on the pump type.
