MODULAR (ISLAND) CONCEPT
ECM WB R
The ECM WB R is Unimak's Rotating Wash Basin high-pressure casting machine — an economic, single-mould machine designed for flexible production of wash basin products, including complex Fine Fire Clay (FFC) models. The mould can cast and drain at any angle (up to +/-180°), improving fill quality and eliminating common modelling defects, while horizontal automatic demoulding is handled by an industrial robot with a purpose-built demoulding tool. Thanks to its compact, airbag-clamping design and modular single-mould structure, up to four machines can be run by a single operator per shift, typically arranged as a multi-machine casting cell with robotic handling, buffer storage and trolley loading.
ECM WB R
At a Glance
600 kN clamping force · casting at any angle (+/-180°) · robotic horizontal demoulding · models up to 100 cm · run 4 machines with 1 operator per shift.
WHY THIS SOLUTION?
The mould can cast and drain at any angle, up to +/-180 degrees, improving fill and drain quality and minimizing defects such as air pockets — especially valuable for complex, high-value ceramic shapes.

//TECHNICAL DATA
Console WB / Shower Tray – Annual Output (1 Cavity)
Console WB / Shower Tray – Annual Output (2 Cavity)
Multi-Cavity Mould Option
Supports multi-cavity mould installation so multiple products can be cast in a single cycle, increasing output without extra space or equipment.
In-Cell Storage
Freshly cast products are held temporarily within the production cell in a controlled environment, preventing premature drying or deformation before further processing.
Easy Mould Access
Mould access from the back side with T-slot channels and a user-friendly clamping system makes mould changes fast, minimizing downtime.
No Foundation Needed
The compact, self-contained structure requires no special foundation work, simplifying installation and reducing setup time.
Siemens S7 Control with Touchscreen HMI
A Siemens S7 PLC and industrial PC touchscreen HMI monitor every casting step — process times, cycles, and hydraulic/slip/air pressure — with remote connection and USB data logging.
Robotic Cell Integration
Compatible with common industrial robots (e.g. ABB, ~3.1 m reach, up to 210 kg payload, IP65) for demoulding, piece rotation and trolley loading in a full casting cell.
