Sand preparation plants consist in large part of storage and conveyor systems. The use of functional, tested equipment,adapted to the special requirements of foundries, is therefore of special importance. Depending on the layout, structural arrangement and construction costs, preference is given to row or tower arrangements, whereby tower sand preparation plants have the advantage of requiring less floor space. For vertical conveyance of foundry sands, VME’s build belt bucket elevators with standardized bucket widths of 315 to 1600 mm and conveying capacities up to 500 Thr.
