Grade Ring
Battery Form Equipment
Designers at
Besser have engineered an innovative new feature into the standard line of
wet cast grade ring battery form sets for even more production efficiency.
Equipment can now be ordered with a unique roll-back core stand and base
pedestal to facilitate stripping the core from the form. The collapsible
core is placed atop a wheel-mounted core stand or base so it may be easily
rolled in and out of the form for product setup and stripping. This
process saves both time and labor, since only the product is handled. It
also eliminates the need for a forklift, as one production employee can
accomplish the simple operation. The roll-back core equipment can be used
with all sizes and styles of grade ring battery form sets.

Form Sets
Wet cast
grade ring battery form sets are available in various styles and sizes to
produce multiple grade ring sections from a single pour. Flat pallets,
keylock pallets and tongue and groove pallets can be used to form the
grade ring joints. Form sets will produce grade rings ranging in height
from 2” (50 mm) up to the length of the jacket.
Jackets
Two-piece or
three-piece jackets (or outer forms) are available in varying lengths, and
the new roll-back core and pedestal feature can be used with either style.
Jackets are fabricated from heavy-duty steel plate with channel rib
reinforcing and sturdy lift eyes. Rugged jackets are equipped with easy-to-operate
adjustable locks designed to simplify the use of the jacket as well as
ensure the production of a quality wet cast product.
Cores
Cores (or
inner forms) are engineered for easy, long-lasting operation and are
fabricated from heavy steel plate with a single opening. The core seam has
beveled, mated edges for a smooth, tight joint. Cores feature the
time-tested internally mounted collapsing device to lock
and unlock the core. |
