At IKOI, innovation stems from hands-on experience and from the drive to develop solutions that respond in a practical and effective way to the needs of the precious metals industry.

It is within this context that SANDENSE® was conceived: a project designed to revolutionize the precious metals refining and casting process, with the aim of making plants increasingly advanced, sustainable, and focused on operational efficiency.

SANDENSE® is a new mechanical process that enables the direct casting bars from silver crystals, eliminating intermediate thermal processes. This process will ensure greater energy efficiency and improved operator safety.

SANDENSE® is part of the development path that IKOI has been pursuing for years in the fields of automation, sustainability, and innovation applied to precious metals metallurgy. The idea behind the project is to contribute to a more informed and conscious management of plant dynamics by enhancing efficiency and simplifying the interaction between technology and operator.

In an industrial environment where accuracy, continuity, quality of results, and control capabilities are becoming increasingly strategic factors, developing new solutions also means rethinking the relationship between machine, process, and information.

With SANDENSE®, IKOI once again confirms its commitment to researching innovative solutions capable of supporting the evolution of the sector, while keeping at the core the values that have always guided the company: technical expertise, reliability, innovation, and an international vision.

The project represents a further step in IKOI’s technological growth journey and reflects the company’s determination to continue investing in ideas, tools, and approaches capable of generating tangible value for the market.
