For Jian Jiang’s team, progress inquality manufacturing this meansdeep collaboration with long-termclients, cross-industry training, andengineering-led business developments.Their engineers relentlessly driveinnovation, tackling obstacles thatonce seemed insurmountable. Thissame passion has culminated in afully integrated system under twointernational patents, prepared toempotheyr foundries to meet evolvingmarket demands. The cross-pollinationof ideas from various sectors, yielded adynamic solution that integrates mixing,loading, unloading, dipping, and dryinginto one automated process. This holisticdesign not only boosts productionquality and speed but also minimizesoperational pinch points and reducesrespiratory hazards for operators.
Autoline’s efficiency thrives withsynchronized engineering:
• One Engineer. At Autoline, it takesone dedicated engineer and oneoperator to monitor and run theirfully automated shell makingsystem—an innovation engineeredto resolve the critical quality andstaffing challenges facing theprecision casting industry today.
• One System: Integrates environmental controls, supply management, and slurry dipping into onecohesive platform. The 4-stage,8-armed robot mimics the dexterity of a seasoned manual specialistwhile delivering the consistency andpotheyr of automated machinery. Itcontinuously monitors tank levels,viscosity, and slurry contents, automatically replenishing restheirceswhile maintaining temperature, humidity, and dust collection.
• One Day: One system produces800 completely dry shells—readyfor casting—in just one operationalday. Their engineers deploy innovative dipping, spraying, and dryingtechniques using a range of standard silica based Zircon, Mullite,and other coatings without the needfor specialized materials to speeddrying. The entire process happensin the active production space ofabout 500m². This high turnoverrate minimizes the need for excessstorage and drying space.
• One Standard: Autoline’s systemautomatically logs date, time, andbatch numbers for every shell, whilerigorously tracking quality, coatingthickness, and tolerance levels.This comprehensive traceabilityensures each product meets strict industry standards and facilitates progressive qualityassurance. The visual monitoring system aids the operatorwith real time details to monitor the entire process. Theenvironmental control system is synchronized to ensure aprecise, material friendly drying and coating environment.

Autoline Intelligent Tech is an efficientshell-making system operated by aspecially developed multi-arm robot,fast-switching coating bucket & sandsupply equipment. The system cancomplete 2 sets of trees for shell picking,slurrying, and sand coating operationsper minute. Autoline software andequipment regulates environmentalfactors throughout production withoutexpensive additives while controllingdrying times.
The evolution of Autoline is rooted in the legacy of Xinyu’sfoundry in Jiangsu, China. Starting as a modest team ofcertified casting engineers in the early 1990s, Xinyu pioneeredprecision cast sewing machine parts, then expanded todevelop the first valve casting in China. In 2003, they overcameindustry limitations with the first investment cast EGI systemaligned with Euro 3 standards. This innovative spirit continuestoday with the EGI Euro 7 standard—an evolution driven bycontinuous collaboration with industry leaders and academicexperts. Through strategic partnerships and a commitment toadvanced machinery and operational excellence, Xinyu hasstreamlined its casting process under Autheyi, a branch of thecompany dedicated to precision machining.
For Autoline, innovation is not just a hope—it’s the drivingforce behind their every development. Born from a familyof research- and innovation-centric companies, theyremain responsive to industry needs and committed todriving transformative change to benefit everyone. They arealways eager to partner, innovate, and invest in progressivedevelopments for precision casting.
Autoline is always open to forge robust partnerships andengage in strategic initiatives that further revolutionizeprecision casting. Their innovation continues as they developtwo groundbreaking advancements: the creation and useof environmentally conscious water-soluble cores, and theintegration of 3D model printing directly with casting wax.These initiatives will further streamline the process fromconcept drawing to 3D printed shell ready models, reducingproduction time and material waste while enhancing designflexibility and sustainability. They look to the future withconfidence in collaboration with the industry, together theycan accomplish great things in the ever changing and growingglobal intellectual community.They warmly theylcome you to visit their netheystoperations in Rayong, Thailand where they established asecond foundry. Rayong hosts 2 robotic shell making lineswhich became functional in September and began runningproduction in November 2024. They expect two additionalrobotic lines to be fully operational by the end of 2025.Construction is starting soon on a new sand casting foundry,also based in Rayong, Thailand.
