Vibra-Drum Screener

Vibra Drum Screener
General Kinematics Logo
Proven through hundreds of applications worldwide, the Vibra-Drum Screener sand and casting processors have revolutionised high volume hold/sand screening for foundry applications. The versatile two-mass system reduces lumps of sand to grain size quickly through an equalised shakeout of sand temperatures whilst not damaging the castings, all through one continuous energy-efficient operation. Natural frequency vibrations create a beneficial drum-like rotary motion that quickly reduces sand lumps without casting damage. Agitation is achieved through high frequencies efficiently reducing sand to grain size. This creates a simple, easy to maintain non rotary design with all the assumed benefits of a totally enclosed drum.

BENEFITS

FEATURES:

  • Non-rotation design is easier to feed, unload, hook up to your air handling system, and maintain than competitive shakeout technologies.
  • 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 for metal sand casting equipment 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 material rotation that quickly reduces sand lumps without casting damage. The tumbling action of the VIBRA-DRUM® scrubs the casting surfaces without sustaining casting damage.

BENEFITS:

  • The VIBRA-DRUM® brings controlled metallurgical cooling to castings for a better quality end product.
  • The scrubbing action of the VIBRA-DRUM® foundry equipment produces cleaner casting surfaces, reducing shot blast consumable consumption up to 20%.
  • The two-mass drive system uses up to 2/3rd’s less energy compared to direct drive machines, creating substantial energy savings.
  • The gentle tumbling action in the sand bed helps protect castings from casting on casting surface damage. The net result is a significant reduction in scrap and reworks post shakeout
