C-Type

High precision electric stopper flow valve

The C-Type electric stopper valve improves enhance features of M-Type with higher velocity, closing force and extended anti-clogging features

Impact of C-Type electric stopper valve

  • Utmost mold level stability through ultra fast response time
  • Safe casting operation by 100% electric solution (no hydraulic)
  • Smooth flow control through real in-line backlash-free and precise guiding
  • Performance consistency all year long by heavy duty parts and design
  • Ultra low maintenance requirements supported by RFID tracking solution
  • Fast Return of Investment by thoroughly technology excellence
Stopper rigging type: M-Type C-Type (new)
Linear speed: 100 mm/s 300 mm/s
Continuous force: 0.37 T 0.69 T

Why should you choose Vesuvius’ Stopper Valve?

  • Improved performances with higher velocity
  • Increased precision of stopper position through rigid guiding design
  • Safe closing with increased closing force (1.4T instead of 0.7T)
  • Reduced down time with very fast greasing (no more dismounting of axis)
  • User friendly stopper adjustment (arm remains horizontal)
  • No more adjustment needed with build-in anti-rotation of rigging axis
  • Extended anti-clogging features with increased dithering range 
  • Optional dither friendly manual lever with uncoupling
