RAMCAST-ROTOR-CAGE

larger image
Ramco's proprietary casting process RAMCAST, was developed especially for aerospace and other applications that demand ultra high quality rotor castings. We designed the process, designed a custom machine to carry out the process, and built the machine in-house. We are the only company in the world with this process.

The benefits of casting rotors with the RAMCAST process include:
  • Ultra low porosity (compared to conventionally-cast rotors) - dense castings
  • Tighter dimensional tolerances
  • Structurally sound cast end rings allow motors to run at higher speeds
  • Higher Efficiency Rotors
  • Lower Stray Load Losses
Rotor Secondary Operations
  • Rotor ID Honing
  • Rotor OD Machining or Grinding
  • Rotor Keyway Broaching - We broach keyways up to 12" long in 280 frame rotors in a single pass on our 90” Horizontal Colonial Broaching Machine.
  • Rotor Annealing - This process is commonly known to the industry - heating the rotor core up and water quenching it and breaking the rotor bars away from the steel. This process creates a more efficient rotor!
Contact Ramco for more information about achieving the highest quality rotor castings using RAMCAST.
