I. Workflow of <\/strong>Green Sand Molding Machine<\/a><\/p>\n

Raw Material Processing<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

New sand requires drying treatment (moisture controlled below 2%)<\/p>\n

Used sand needs crushing, magnetic separation, and cooling (to about 25°C)<\/p>\n

Harder stone materials are preferred, typically initially crushed using jaw crushers or cone crushers<\/p>\n

Sand Mixing<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

Mixing equipment includes wheel-type, pendulum-type, blade-type, or rotor-type mixers<\/p>\n

Mixing process points:<\/p>\n

Add sand and water first, then bentonite (can reduce mixing time by 1\/3-1\/4)<\/p>\n

Control water addition to 75% of total required water for wet mixing<\/p>\n

Add supplemental water until compactness or moisture content meets standards<\/p>\n

Mold Preparation<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

Fill prepared sand into molds<\/p>\n

Mechanically compact to form molds (can be manual or machine molding)<\/p>\n

Machine molding is suitable for mass production, improving efficiency and casting precision<\/p>\n

Pre-Pouring Treatment‌<\/p>\n

Mold assembly: Combine sand molds and cores into complete molds<\/p>\n

No drying required before pouring (characteristic of green sand)<\/p>\n

Post-Processing<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

Cool castings to appropriate temperature after pouring<\/p>\n

Shakeout: Remove sand and core sand<\/p>\n

Cleaning: Remove gates, risers, surface sand, and burrs<\/p>\n

II. Operation and Maintenance Guide<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Standard Operating Procedures<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pre-startup Checks<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

Verify that the vortex chamber observation door is securely closed<\/p>\n

Confirm impeller rotation direction should be counterclockwise<\/p>\n

Check all instrument readings and oil circuits<\/p>\n

Run unloaded for 1-2 minutes before feeding<\/p>\n

Shutdown Procedures<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

Continue operation until material is fully discharged after stopping feed<\/p>\n

Check all safety conditions before powering off<\/p>\n

Clean all machine parts and complete shift logs<\/p>\n

2. Daily Maintenance<\/strong><\/p>\n

Regular Inspections<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

Check internal wear conditions per shift<\/p>\n

Inspect drive belt tension for even force distribution<\/p>\n

Verify safety devices are functional<\/p>\n

Lubrication Maintenance<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

Use Mobil automotive grease, add every 400 operating hours<\/p>\n

Clean spindle after 2000 operating hours<\/p>\n

Replace bearings after 7200 operating hours<\/p>\n

Wear Parts Maintenance<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

Rotor maintenance: Insert head into upper\/lower disc holes, secure inner\/outer rings with bolts<\/p>\n

Hammer maintenance: Reverse when worn, maintain proper distance from strike plate<\/p>\n

Plate hammer maintenance: Rotate positions regularly<\/p>\n

3. Common Fault Handling<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Symptom<\/td>\nPossible Cause<\/td>\nSolution<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Unstable operation<\/td>\nSevere wear of impeller parts<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Excessive feed size<\/p>\n

Blockage in impeller flow<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

Replace worn parts<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Control feed size<\/p>\n

Clear blockage<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Abnormal noise<\/td>\nLoose bolts, liners, or impeller<\/td>\nTighten all components<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Bearing overheating<\/td>\nDust ingress<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bearing failure<\/p>\n

Lack of lubrication<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

Clean contaminants<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Replace bearing<\/p>\n

Lubricate properly<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Increased output size<\/td>\nLoose belt<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Excessive feed size<\/p>\n

Improper impeller speed<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

Adjust belt tension<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Control feed size<\/p>\n

Regulate impeller speed<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Seal damage\/oil leakage<\/td>\nShaft sleeve rubbing<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Seal wear<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

Replace seals<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

4. Safety Regulations<\/strong><\/p>\n

Personnel Requirements<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

Operators must be trained and certified<\/p>\n

Designated operators only<\/p>\n

Wear proper PPE (hairnets for female workers)<\/p>\n

Operation Safety<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

Notify all personnel before startup<\/p>\n

Never reach into moving parts<\/p>\n

Stop immediately for abnormal noises<\/p>\n

Maintenance Safety‌<\/strong><\/p>\n

Power off before troubleshooting<\/p>\n

Use warning tags during internal repairs<\/p>\n

Never remove safety guards or modify wiring<\/p>\n

Environmental Safety<\/strong>‌<\/p>\n

Keep work area clean and clear<\/p>\n

Ensure proper ventilation and lighting<\/p>\n

Maintain functional fire extinguishers<\/p>\n
