SDAM - Shakeout
Deck Attrition Mill
This unit not only
acts as a shakeout deck, but also includes an
integral attrition mill section. The output of this
unit is grain size and ready for cooling and
classification.
The greatest
advantage of this unit is the lack of a
pit requirement. The low level deck offers ease of
loading with a forklift, roller conveyor, or
vibratory feed conveyor. No pit means less cleanup
and failed springs from being buried.

Example: Dualtech
Installation. Molds are broken
up and the part removed. Sand is recovered
and recycled. |
The
basic unit will provide shakeout of the casting,
remove any larger than grain size material, and
perform the Mechanical Sand Reclamation of the sand. The
heavy-duty upper grid breaks up the mold to allow
for removal of the casting and serves to break down
the lumps into particles small enough to drop
through the top grid. Once the lumps pass through
the grid, the sand is vibrated through a perforated
plate. A
final easy-access screen is mounted at the discharge
end of the unit to remove any larger than grain size
material, ceramics, metal, and slag.
|
Mechanical Sand Reclamation comes from the sand
grains abrading
against each other. This action
not only serves to
de-husk the grain, but also to
remove sharp edges
(especially from sub-angular
and angular grains)
helping reduce the required
resin addition when the
sand is reused. The
amount of resin removed varies
due to binder type,
percentage of binder in the
sand, type of metal
poured, and the sand to metal
ratio. |
 |
 |
Nominal throughput depends on
resin content, resin type, sand/meter ratio, metal
poured, pouring temperature, mold cooling time,
etc.This
unit aides in an overall reduction of sand
fracturing, reducing overall sand losses due to
reclamation processing. This unit coupled with a
high efficiency classifier or cooler / classifier
will allow the end user to fine tune their
reclaimed sand for maximum reuse with minimum sand
losses.
