Mold Dump Conveyors
Mold dump conveyor systems are deigned to provide a mechanized vibratory transfer of the poured mold from the mold handler to the DIDION Rotary Media DrumĀ® or CDC Vibratory Shakeout. The troughs are extra deep to contain the poured molds and are usually heated for green sand applications to prevent the sand from sticking to them.
Mold dump conveyors are typically long (40 to 100 feet) to accommodate casting cooling prior to sand / casting separation. Since the mold is cracked open upon feeding these conveyors, fume / dust hoods with dust collection pick-up points are recommended to keep the plant clean.
