Estimating the term…
A process for preparing mold-sand includes the steps of pouring a proportioned amount of mold-sand components into a mixer, adding the calculated amount of water, mixing the components, taking a sample and measuring the mold-sand moisture content. After taking a representative sample from the mixer, this sample is used to make a specimen by its compaction, and the moisture content is measured with the consequent adjustment of the moisture content in the considered mix batch, and the sampling is carried out by repeated pushing the mixture down into a case with the help of a periodically-operated butterfly valve until its filling with the mixture, and then the mold-sand mixture is compacted in the case with a plunger. A device prepares the mold-sand.
A process for preparing mold-sand comprising the steps of:
The device for preparing mold-sand, comprising a mixer under the form of a fixed pan containing mixing elements under the form of shares and of vortex heads, and an assembly for controlling the mold-sand mix moisture fixed on a wall of said pan above the level of the shares, wherein the assembly for controlling the mold-sand mix moisture comprises a case for forming a specimen and fixed obliquely on the wall of the fixed pan, at one end of which a plunger with a built-in moisture probe and an air cylinder are mounted, and its other open end located inside the mixer being provided with a periodically-operated butterfly valve serving to fill the case with mold-sand, with an additional air cylinder.
