Discussion:
Foundry forklifts

I would like to start a discussion about foundry forklifts. I'll start by saying I maintain a fleet of mobile equipment for one of the worlds largest manufactures of aluminum. We deal with molten metal daily in our cast houses & ingot plants. Along with various types of damage we also have molton metal damage. What I would like to know is "what would be considered normal damage or normal wear & tear" I know what some of our manufacturing locations around world deal with but I would like to here from other's on the this subject.

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
