A SAFER AND MORE EFFICIENT PRODUCTION THANKS TO THE AUTOMATION SYSTEMS BY TERA AUTOMATION FOR THE PRECIOUS METAL INDUSTRY

GRAIN PROCESSING

Continuous processing without cross-contamination

Industrial automation for superior quality grain processing. Three machines, which can be installed individually or as a comprehensive system, allow the automation of the following processes: graining and flawless drying of precious metals, as well as their continuous transfer system without cross-contaminations.

METAL DOSING

Swiftness and precision

Using a very performing automatic dosing machine means enjoying an accuracy down to the thousandth of a gram, which only an automated system can provide.  Dosing is perhaps one of the most delicate steps of a precious metal processing and it is usually very time-consuming. Thanks to T-Dosing, you can achieve maximum accuracy, while minimizing the risk of ending up with non-compliant weighted grains.

METAL MELTING AND REFINING

Continuous production of ingots without metal loss

Melting furnaces are the heart of our selection of machines for precious metals. Within the production of precious metal anodes and ingots, casting is the most dangerous processing step for operators, where metal loss can occur more often. Researches by Tera Automation have led to the creation of innovative and safe induction tunnel furnaces with excellent performances for a continuous ingot production.

METAL FINISHING

Perfect ready-to-sell ingots

A perfect ingot - whether big or small, made of gold or silver - must be flawless and have a mirror finishing surface. Thanks to our ingot finishing automation machines, the brushing, logo stamping and serialization processes occur without any metal loss in compact working stations, by using machines that can be integrated with robots, vision systems for quality control and other working stations.

MINTING

Minting and coining presses tending

This automation gives presses - whether existing ones or new ones provided by Tera Automation - an unparalleled production autonomy: technicians will not work as operators anymore, but they will simply supervise the process of one or more presses operating at the same time. Moreover, coin, medal and minting ingot production has a quick, extremely accurate and consistent yield over time.

PACKAGING

Vacuum packing, in a blister pack or in sachets

We take care of the whole production process in the precious metals industry, including packaging. We have developed different packaging solutions that can be fitted to any type of automation machine to pack casting and minting ingots, coins, medals and grains made with different materials.
