They were looking to upgrade from their old style rotary drum to a state-of-the-art casting cleaning and de-gating technology that catered to their foundry process. The existing technology utilized a cumbersome cast grid liner system that was difficult and expensive to replace, as well as having a drum body that had to be repeatedly patched to stop sand from leaking all over the foundry floor. - When it came time to replace the existing drum due to wear and increased maintenance costs.GK worked with the foundry production team to create a rotary solution that would cater to their demanding production schedule, reduce maintenance downtime and eliminate costly repairs.
