Vibra-Drum - Sand and Casting Processors

Two-mass vibrating drums deliver high capacity to 400 TPH, plus superior material motion for efficient sand and casting processing. Natural frequency vibration produces a beneficial drum-like rotary motion that quickly reduces sand lumps without casting damage. High frequency agitation efficiently reduces sand to original grain size. Put it all together and you have a simple, easy-to-maintain, non-rotating design with all the environmental benefits of a totally enclosed rotating drum — but with no air handling, sealing, or interface problems and no casting damage. Our non-rotating drum design simplifies the installation of feed and discharge systems and facilitates in-process inspection.

• Upset Conditions: The two-mass sub-resonant tuned system of the VIBRA-DRUM is designed to compensate for variations in load size and weight.
• Springs: GK vibratory springs are designed for 24/7 continuous duty, and require little to no maintenance over the life of the machine. GK heavy-duty springs do not break or wear out under normal operation.
• Parts: The natural frequency drums have few moving parts. Maintenance is contained to bearing lubrication and monitoring of motor and drive components.
• Drive Force: Natural frequency vibration of the VIBRA-DRUM produces a beneficial drum-like rotary motion that quickly reduces sand lumps without casting damage. High frequency agitation efficiently reduces sand to original grain size. The tumbling action of the VIBRA-DRUM scrubs the casting surfaces without castings sustaining damage.
• Non-rotation design is easier to feed, easier to unload, and easier to maintain.
  Heavy-duty liners are made of abrasion resistant wear plate to last.
• Totally enclosed structure reduces dust collection requirements.
• Castings come out cleaner and cooler with reduced scrap when compared to rotary or brute force vibratory drums.
