Recover Up to 98% of Resin Sand, Reduce Production Costs, and Build a Sustainable Foundry with a Compact No-Bake Sand Reclamation Solution.

Why Are Foundries Investing in Compact Resin Sand Reclamation Systems?

For modern foundries, controlling production costs is just as important as increasing output.

Every day, large volumes of no-bake resin bonded sand are discarded after shakeout because they contain residual binder and hardened agglomerates.

Without an efficient reclamation process, foundries face:

• Rising silica sand costs
• Increased resin binder consumption
• Higher landfill and disposal expenses
• Greater environmental pressure
• Inconsistent molding sand quality
• Reduced profitability

Compact No Bake Resin Sand Reclamation System enables foundries to recover valuable silica sand, minimize waste, and create a more efficient, sustainable production process—without requiring a large factory footprint.

What Is a Compact No Bake Resin Sand Reclamation System?

Compact No Bake Resin Sand Reclamation System is a fully integrated recycling solution designed to process used resin bonded sand from no-bake molding lines.

It combines several core machines into one compact production line, including:

• Resin Sand Crushing Machine
• Secondary Mechanical Sand Reclaimer
• Fine Screening Unit
• Fluidized Sand Cooling Bed
• Bucket Elevator
• Screw Conveyor
• Pulse Jet Dust Collector
• PLC Control System

The system removes residual resin films, separates fines, cools reclaimed sand, and returns high-quality sand to the molding process.

How the Compact Sand Reclamation System Works

Step 1 – Shakeout & Collection

After casting solidification, molds are broken apart and the used resin sand is collected.

Step 2 – Primary Crushing

Large sand lumps are broken into smaller particles using a high-efficiency resin sand crushing machine.

Benefits:

• Uniform feed size
• Improved downstream efficiency
• Reduced equipment wear

Step 3 – Secondary Mechanical Reclamation

The reclaimed sand enters the attrition chamber where high-speed mechanical friction removes residual resin films from each sand grain.

This is the most critical stage for improving reclaimed sand quality.

Step 4 – Screening & Dust Removal

A fine hexagonal screen separates oversized particles while the pulse jet dust collector removes resin powder and fine dust.

The result is cleaner, more uniform reclaimed sand.

Step 5 – Sand Cooling

The fluidized cooling bed reduces sand temperature to meet molding requirements, ensuring stable resin mixing and consistent mold quality.

Step 6 – Reuse in Production

The reclaimed sand is transferred directly to the continuous resin sand mixer and reused for mold production, reducing dependence on fresh silica sand.

Technical Specifications

Recovery performance depends on binder type, process parameters, and operating conditions.

Key Advantages

1. Save Up to 90% on New Sand Purchases

By reclaiming and reusing high-quality silica sand, foundries dramatically reduce the need for fresh sand while maintaining stable molding performance.

2. Lower Resin Binder Consumption

Cleaner reclaimed sand provides better bonding consistency, reducing resin and catalyst usage.

3. Improve Casting Quality

Uniform reclaimed sand improves:

• Mold strength
• Permeability
• Surface finish
• Dimensional accuracy

while reducing gas defects and sand inclusions.

4. Compact Footprint

Unlike traditional large reclamation plants, the compact system is ideal for:

• Small and medium foundries
• Workshop upgrades
• Limited factory space
• Retrofit projects

5. Energy-Efficient Operation

Optimized mechanical attrition, efficient conveying, and intelligent control reduce electricity consumption and maintenance costs.

6. Eco-Friendly Manufacturing

The system supports sustainable production by:

• Reducing landfill waste
• Lowering CO₂ emissions
• Improving resource utilization
• Helping meet environmental regulations

Typical Applications

The Compact No Bake Resin Sand Reclamation System is widely used in:

• Steel Casting Foundries
