SAND
CRESCENT uses Green Sand for molding which
suggests that sand is bonded with water and there is
no use of chemicals in the sand. 98% of sand has
been recycled. Sand is cleaned using various stages
of magnetic separator. First bigger particles are
removed using magnetic drum in a conveyor belt.
There after finer particles are separated by magnetic
gravity separation. We recycle cast iron and steel
scrap in our furnaces. Boring and fines generated
during the casting and machining processes are
briquetted in-house and are re melted. 98% of our
sand is recycled as well.
IRON FINES
To prevent IRON FINES from getting into soil by
land filling contractors, CRESCENT has installed
Briquetting Machine. This machine does
compaction of the iron fines into small cylindrical
pieces. These pieces are then charged into cupola
for re-melting. In this way iron fines are prevented
from getting into soil.
CRESCENT has been in the fore front in protecting environment from pollution. It is the first foundry to
have ISO 14001:2004.
