Product Description:
Shakes, agitates, vibrates, tumbles, and abrades up to 4 foot lumps to minus 20 mesh grain size. Automatically.
The Vibra-Mill lumpbreaker attrition mill has proved itself in scores of foundries as both a total attrition mill or as a sand preconditioner. It often eliminates the need for larger, more costly equipment and systems while actually improving production rates. And, Vibra-Mill sand reclamation efficiency greatly reduces the purchase of new sand.
Construction
Mounted on low stress steel coil isolation springs to minimize floor vibration, Vibra-Mill features an open tub design that eliminates maintenance and operational problems inherent in multiple deck units. With GK’s standard Vibra-Mill design, manual clean-out of the tub is unnecessary.
Compact in design, the largest Vibra-Mill model occupies just under 81 square feet of floor space. It can easily be incorporated into most existing systems for improved production and savings.
Capacity
Production rates of up to twenty tons per hour can be sustained, while reducing a normal mixture of lumps and sand to original grain size.
Final Grain Size
Lumps are reduced to minus 20 mesh with original grain size distribution and corresponding reduction in L.O.I. With proper addition of new sand, reclaimed material is clean and ready for new mold production without further attrition.
Separation Capability
To assure clean sand, tramp material such as metallics, ceramics, core wires, etc. are conveyed and unloaded through an air operated gate at one end of the unit.
At the opposite end, fine sand passes through an air sweep exhaust where fine organics are removed, and also over a final sizing screen for separation of ceramic and metallic particles.
Low Noise Level
Quiet, smooth operating Vibra-Mill conforms to the most stringent industry noise specifications.
Drive System
Drive system is a tandem unit of self-contained motorized drives from 2 to 7 ½ hp. Each, depending on the Vibra-Mill model. They create the vibrating action necessary to process sand lumps into original grain size. Motors are specially constructed for vibratory service, and feature dust-tight, totally enclosed design. Drives are easily accessible for service and maintenance.
On standard Vibra-Mill models, a third drive is used during the trash unloading cycle to produce a reverse conveying action and to clear the primary screen. For High-Energy Vibra-Mill designs, clean out must be completed manually.
Motor dependability, simplified drive, and easy accessibility contribute to the trouble-free performance of Vibra-Mill equipment.
Not Just For Sand
Vibra-Mill is a truly versatile piece of equipment. In fact, there are many industries where Vibra-Mill tumbling and attrition action can be added to the processing cycle, to speed up production and save costs. For example, the scrap metal industry uses Vibra-Mill to process metal pieces before briquetting. Foundries also use Vibra-Mill for recovery of non-ferrous materials, like aluminum, bronze, brass, and special alloys.
