High-performance mixer / foundry core sand - STATORMIX

State of the art core production demands mixers with optimum mixing intensity, high mixing performance, low binder consumption as well as low cleaning and maintenance requirements.

The KLEIN STATORMIX combines the best of the reliable KLEIN core sand mixers.

Here is what makes the STATORMIX stand out:
- high mixing intensity
- mixing rate matched to the core demand
- partial batches can be processed without loss in quality
- minimum adherance of residues to the mixer interior
- triple stage cleaning concept
- freely accessible mixer interior
- lowest wear
- only negligible sand residues in the mixer after discharge
- low energy consumption
- no heating up of the sand
- no loss of the solvents

Volumetric mixer-dispenser / for foundry sand - BDG

KLEIN bellow dosing equipment was particularly developed for use with chemical binders for foundry sands. The design is simple and robust.

Principle components:
- stainless steel bellows
- welded flange connections on both ends
- the seals do not come into contact with any binder
- operated by normal compressed air
- suction spring-actuated

Features:
- volumetric dosing independent of binder viscosity
- guaranteed repetitive accuracy +/- 0.5 %
- The bellow dosing equipment is absolutely maintenance-free.
- The desired dosing volume is easily adjustable by:
. manually infinitely adjustable set screw
. selection of two binder quantities using selector switches
. infinite adjustment of dosed quantity

Fluidized bed cooler / for foundry sand - FKS

The FKS fluid-bed cooler-sifter is an installation for the treatment of dry silica sand. The sand is cooled down to processing temperature and thoroughly dedusted to reach an excellent quality level.

The FKS is particularly distinguished by:
- simple and reliable operation
- a compact design
- an energy-saving economic concept

Design
The fluid-bed cooler-sifter is fitted with baffle-plates arranged at right angles to the longitudinal walls of the housing and forcing the sand to flow alternately over and under the plates. The resulting spaces, the so-called chambers, house the heat exchangers through which cooling water is circulated. The bottom of the housing is permeable to air but not to sand.

Functioning
While hot sand is fed into the FKS through the inlet, air produced by a fan is blown through its air-permeable bottom. This procedure fluidizes the sand, allowing it to flow freely and to behave like a liquid in communicating tubes. The fluid bed is filled to a controlled maximum level before the sand leaves the FKS again at the discharge end. While the sand flows through the individual chambers it passes along and is cooled by the integrated heat exchangers. At the outlet, a thermostat monitors the sand outlet temperature. In the course of this process, the dust contained in the sand is expelled by the fluidizing air.

The dust is then evacuated into the dust separation filter through a dust gas line.

Foundry sand heater - max. 330 kW | EH series

The Metso systems have numerous benefits which include a quick response time, a true understanding of process conditions and in-house engineering to enable custom fit applications. It has an incredibly small size with the footprint of the EH 120 being just 1.000m x 1.350m x 2.600m high. The live load of the unit is approximately 2250 kg and, if needed, the heater can be hanging.

Without losing any height, the unit can be fitted into an existing pipeline. A height of 835 mm can actually be gained after the heater is installed. The Metso systems are capable of being installed anywhere in the world and have been designed following years of experience with all types of rotary kilns and incinerators.

Inspection device sand conditioning quality - DISA SMC

Sand quality is the key to mould quality and thus the key to high performance production of quality castings.

Designed for use with high-capacity mixers, the DISA SMC regulates and monitors the process in the sand mixer and ensures that the characteristics of the prepared moulding sand remain within a constant range. The regulation is automatic and continuous by in-mixer analysis of the sand during mixing. Analyses are based on accurate measurements of compactability and sand strength as well as measurements of return sand moisture (option).
