The Horizontal-Axis Compaction system is a patented vibratory sand compaction system for processing lost foam flasks.
Horizontal-Axis Compaction System
The Horizontal-Axis Compaction system is a patented vibratory sand compaction system for processing lost foam flasks.
- Horizontal-Axis Compaction Unit* (patented) side clamping compaction system grips the flask from the side using three hydraulic cylinders as rams that act as clamps.
- Unit is manufactured from a heavy fabricated steel structure and precision machined.
- Adjustable reaction angle. Variable frequency (rpm)/acceleration (force).
- Vibrating system with mechanical timing interlocks assures precise alignment of forces at all times.
- Precision clamping system with pressure switch to ensure that clamp pressure is maintained.
- Clamped horizontal system minimizes noise.
- Single standard motor drive system.
- Eccentric vibratory system with adjustable weights mounted inboard of bearings to eliminate cantilevered forces, which reduce bearing life.
- Entire drive unit, clamping system and hydraulic system mounted above floor, not under conveyor, for easy access.
