Recover More Sand, Reduce Production Costs, and Build a Smarter Foundry with a High-Efficiency No-Bake Resin Sand Reclamation System.

Why Every Modern Foundry Needs an Efficient Resin Sand Reclamation System

For foundries using no-bake resin bonded sand, raw material costs continue to rise while environmental regulations become increasingly stringent.

Discarding used sand after every molding cycle results in:

• High silica sand purchasing costs
• Increased resin and catalyst consumption
• Expensive landfill disposal
• Unstable molding quality
• Higher production costs
• Reduced profitability

Efficient No Bake Resin Sand Reclamation System transforms waste into reusable production material by mechanically removing residual binder films, separating impurities, cooling reclaimed sand, and returning it to the molding process.

The result is lower production costs, improved casting quality, and a more sustainable manufacturing operation.

What Is a No Bake Resin Sand Reclamation System?

A No Bake Resin Sand Reclamation System is an integrated production line that restores used resin bonded sand for reuse in foundry molding.

The system combines multiple processing stages into one continuous operation, including:

• Vibratory Shakeout Machine
• Resin Sand Crushing Machine
• Secondary Mechanical Sand Reclaimer
• Fine Hexagonal Screen
• Fluidized Sand Cooling Bed
• Bucket Elevator
• Screw Conveyor
• Pulse Jet Dust Collector
• PLC Intelligent Control System

Each stage is engineered to maximize sand recovery while maintaining consistent reclaimed sand quality.

How the System Works

Step 1 – Shakeout

After solidification, castings are separated from the molds using a vibratory shakeout machine. Used resin bonded sand is collected for reclamation.

Step 2 – Sand Crushing

Large hardened sand lumps are reduced into uniform particles by a resin sand crusher.

Benefits include:

• Stable particle size
• Better downstream processing
• Reduced equipment wear

Step 3 – Mechanical Attrition

The secondary reclamation unit removes residual resin films through high-speed friction between sand grains.

This stage significantly improves reclaimed sand quality and minimizes new sand demand.

Step 4 – Screening & Dust Separation

A fine screening system removes oversized particles while the pulse jet dust collector extracts resin dust and fines.

The reclaimed sand becomes cleaner and more consistent.

Step 5 – Sand Cooling

The fluidized cooling bed lowers sand temperature before it enters the resin mixer.

Stable sand temperature improves:

• Resin coating performance
• Mold strength
• Dimensional accuracy
• Casting surface finish

Step 6 – Automatic Recycling

The cleaned and cooled sand is conveyed directly to the continuous resin sand mixer for reuse, creating a closed-loop production system.

Typical Technical Specifications

Actual recovery rate depends on sand properties, binder system, and production conditions.

Key Advantages

1. Recover Up to 98% of Valuable Sand

Efficient mechanical reclamation minimizes fresh silica sand consumption and significantly lowers raw material costs.

2. Lower Binder Consumption

Cleaner reclaimed sand provides better resin coating performance, reducing binder and catalyst usage while maintaining mold strength.

3. Improve Casting Quality

Consistent reclaimed sand improves:

• Surface finish
• Mold strength
• Gas permeability
• Dimensional accuracy

and helps reduce defects such as burn-on, gas porosity, and sand inclusions.

4. Reduce Environmental Impact

By recycling sand instead of disposing of it, foundries reduce landfill waste, conserve natural resources, and improve environmental compliance.

5. Compact Modular Design

The modular layout allows easy installation in:

• Existing foundries
• Greenfield projects
• Small and medium workshops
• Large automated production lines

6. Low Maintenance & Long Service Life

Critical wear parts are manufactured from:

• High-chromium alloy
• Wear-resistant liners
• Heavy-duty bearings
• Hardened shafts

ensuring reliable long-term operation.

Typical Applications

This system is widely used in:

• Steel Casting Foundries
• Ductile Iron Foundries
• Gray Iron Foundries
• Valve Manufacturing
• Pump Manufacturing
• Mining Equipment
• Wind Energy Components
• Railway Castings
• Heavy Machinery Production
