The Press Release concerning the installation at ICC did not provide any indication of time. Has the System 2000 already been installed?

According to earlier information, SinterCast’s revenues will be derived from System 2000 installations, Sampling Cups and a Production Fee based on the weight of castings produced. Has there been any change in this strategy?

In the last Interim Report and the Audio Q&A forum, SinterCast announced that it had secured approximately 35% of the world capacity for cast iron cylinder blocks and heads. It was also suggested that the SinterCast foundry partners may actually represent approximately 60% of the realistic CGI supply base for the next five or so years. How can SinterCast be sure that the already signed up foundries do not use another method for their production of CGI?

There have been no scientific publications authored or co-authored by SinterCast for a while. Is this a reflection on the acceptance of CGI-processes and machining in the industry?

Does the cooperation between ABB Automation and SinterCast to develop and implement foundry-specific solutions for the production of CGI from heated and non-heated automated pouring furnaces prevent ABB from installing these furnaces without the SinterCast process control system? Does SinterCast (or ABB) have any patent applications pending regarding this kind of production?

Can the iron and the magnesium contained in CGI be separated when the iron is scrapped? If not, can the CGI be recycled?

A recent publication has indicated that CGI is 25% more expensive to produce than conventional grey iron. The publication also suggested that SinterCast would need 2% of the automotive market to breakeven. Can you comment on these items? How many engines would the 2% market share represent?

How does the new SAE standard for CGI affect SinterCast?

What is SinterCast’s currency policy when signing production contracts with the payment in currencies other than SEK?

SinterCast has made good progress in reducing its operating expenses. As there is a lot of travel expense to visit customers, and both the President and the engineering staff are frequently travelling, how are you controlling the travel expenses?
