Control of rebonding sand mixing as a condition for optimisation of the sand feeding system in the casting line
Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2010, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
In order to ensure the effective operation of the casting line, synthetic sand containing bentonite has to be fed in a precisely controlled quality and quantity. The required quantity is ensured by mixing stations outfitted with turbine mixers. The quality of sand mix, defined by its technological parameters, depends on the available measurement and control equipment and the system controlling the mixers’ operation. These issues are investigated at the Department of Foundry Engineering AGH-UST in collaboration with the PPP Technical Company in Now Sól (Poland), a major manufacturer of turbine mixers. This study outlines the scope and results of research work aimed to improve the control equipment to enhance the performance of turbine mixers.
