The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied bythe inventors: ““(a) Field“The subject matter disclosed generally relates to systems and methods for opera ting furnaces. Moreparticularly, the subject matter disclosed relates to system s and methods for operating maintenanceoperations in relation of furnaces in a foundry.“(b) Related Prior Art“Traditionally, in conventional processes for metal castings, operators must ope rate with furnaces,molten metal and molds, all of which are kept at high temper atures to prevent premature solidification ofthe molten metal, which results in an excessively difficult environment for the operators. Further, becauseof the temperature in which operations must be performed, there is a difficulty to des ign equipmentthat can operates in these conditions, requiring specific material s capable of resisting the heat of theseconditions without premature wear. Furt hermore, the permanent locations of some components withrespect to the furnaces results in premature wear, therefore costs that operators wants to decrease. Also, existing robots and automated vehicles and not well suited for the such task s and for the extremeenvironment of such furnaces.
