Latest Patents
One of Schwaiger's latest patents is a pressing device designed for compressing metal parts, specifically chips. This invention relates to an extrusion device that compacts metal parts, such as shavings made from iron, copper, magnesium, or their alloys, into homogeneous extrusion moldings. The device features at least one extrusion unit equipped with an extrusion die formed by a die housing, which creates a die cavity. It also includes a guide arrangement for an extrusion element that is adjustable by a drive device, along with an inlet opening for the shavings in the die housing. A compression channel is strategically arranged opposite the front face of the extrusion element, facilitating the passage of material strands into the mold cavity.
Another significant patent by Schwaiger involves the operation method of furnace equipment for magnesium alloys. This invention introduces a protective furnace gas that safeguards a bath of magnesium within the furnace equipment. The gas mixture consists of an inert gas, such as nitrogen, combined with 0.3 to 1.5% by volume of sulfur dioxide. This mixture is maintained in a temperature-controlled environment, ideally between 25 and 35 degrees Celsius, to ensure optimal conditions for processing magnesium alloys.
