In 2025, Marposs will introduce the next generation Total Thermal Vision (TTV) system, a significant evolution in thermal control of die casting processes. The third generation of TTV allows for more accurate detection of mold surface temperatures thanks to the introduction of a new thermal camera developed in-house by Marposs, as well as a more advanced and easy-to-use data interface and management software. The innovations introduced leverage Marposs’ 10 years of experience in the die casting field, with over 250 systems sold worldwide and a strong presence in cutting-edge projects at international level. The new generation is an essential tool to optimize spray stages and temperature regulation, reduce defects related to thermal irregularities, improve product quality and improve overall plant OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness). Designed.
Modern die casting challenges, especially the advent of large machines and the “gigacasting” phenomenon, demand automatic and intuitive thermal control for the operator. Over the years, TTV has supported numerous projects where the individual components have a high added value, justifying the implementation of the system just a few months after installation. Additionally, starting in 2025, the TTV product line will expand to include more products tailored to small, medium, and large presses, depending on the required accuracy, press integration, and number of thermal cameras involved. A scalable and modular solution will be provided.
Thanks to these innovations, Marposs increases efficiency, reduces operating costs and optimizes production cycles, with a positive impact on waste reduction and energy sustainability.
Digitalization of the foundry: the key to improving production
In addition to the mechanical and structural innovations that shape the sector, digitalization is the next challenge that every entrepreneur must address to remain competitive. The integration of advanced systems such as Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) enables real-time monitoring of production processes, improving quality, productivity, and traceability. In this context, TTV is seamlessly integrated with MES, enabling real-time archiving and analysis of thermal data, allowing timely intervention in case of anomalies.
Digitalization also opens the door to using technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) to optimize processes in situations where waste rates are high or where relying solely on the know-how of individual operators is insufficient. Masu. The data collected by the TTV and other peripherals of the printing press will become an essential tool for supporting decision-making, with the aim of reducing downtime and improving operational management, especially during warm-up and mold change stages. I am. Furthermore, these solutions optimize resource use, reduce energy consumption and contribute to increased sustainability in line with circular economy goals.
Marposs is strongly committed to supporting the digital transition in manufacturing. With its experience in the automotive and machine tool sectors, Marposs has established itself as a pioneer in introducing digitalization to the die casting industry through systems such as Total Thermal Vision. The combination of automation, AI and data control will be essential to meet the future challenges of die casting, making foundries smarter and better equipped to adapt to the ever-evolving market needs.
