Magaldi’s technologies to conquer the Middle East market

Thanks to the availability of low cost energy, raw material and workforce, the Iranian metal casting market is expected to quickly ramp-up in the near future.
To face the growing demand for cast parts, the Iranian boiler manufacturer Chauffagekar Ind. Co. started a development project, looking for dependable technologies able to decrease unpredictable forced shutdowns and to reduce the high maintenance required by traditional chain conveyors.
Magaldi was chosen to supply its Superbelt® technology for moulds handling in order to replace the existing Apron-based conveyor.

The Superbelt® conveyor guarantees an high dependability thanks to the construction features of the belt, a multi-link traction media supported by upper idlers with plates directly attached to a steel mesh. Compared to traditional chain belts (single link), even if the double-wire mesh is severely damaged, the Superbelt® conveyor continues to run without sudden failures, thus allowing plant operators to schedule its maintenance according to operation needs. On the contrary, a failure on a traditional chain conveyor leads to the complete shutdown of the production line.
Moreover, Magaldi belt does not suffer from wear and tear: the absence of chains, pinions and scrapers guarantees a longer service life.

The 30 meters long Superbelt® conveyor supplied to the Iranian foundry allows to easily handle the moulds coming from the punch-out to the shake out and, since the belt runs at a synchronized rate with the moulding line, operators are able to safely sort the castings or remove sprues.

Breaking the Waste Cycle: How Dry IBA Management Can Disrupt Landfill Dependency and Ash Pond Pollution

24 June 2025

We burn waste to keep it out of landfills - but what about the ash? If untreated or poorly managed, Incinerator Bottom Ash (IBA) becomes just another form of waste destined for landfills or ash ponds, thus undermining the circularity promise of WtE systems. The Magaldi Dry Ash Management (MADAM) system tackles this critical gap by drastically reducing the amount of IBA sent to landfill and transforming it into a cleaner, high-quality material suitable for reuse.
