Foundries Equipment Scope

Filter, fan, filter bag, filter cage and auxiliary equipment selection by process

In foundries, melting fumes, sand preparation, molding, shake-out, sandblasting, and grinding points each carry different particle and temperature loads. Hoods, ductwork, cyclones, baghouse filters, air equipment, and wear protection are selected on a process-by-process basis.

Process filtration, fan, and equipment scope for foundries

Process-based system approach

The filter housing, fan, ductwork, filter element, pulse-jet system and discharge/conveying equipment are not independent of one another; they are evaluated as components of the same operating point.

Information clarified before quoting

Smoke peak: Furnace charge/pour cycle
Silica/metal dust: Particle size distribution and abrasiveness
Temperature/spark: Peak temperature and hot particles
Duct system: Hood opening, distance, and dampers
Sand conveying: Elevator/conveyor capacity

Equipment scope by process point

Process Dew Point	Filter / dust-fume solution	Fan, ductwork and conveying equipment	Critical selection grade
Melting furnace	Primary/secondary fume extraction and baghouse	ID/booster fan, hood, and damper	Fume peak, sparks, and hot metal oxide
Sand preparation/mixer	Local baghouse filter	Sand transfer fan, rotary valve, and elevator	Silica dust, wear, and moisture
Shake-out and mold breakdown	Cyclone + high-load filter	High-flow dedusting air-handling equipment	Sudden heavy dust loads and hot sand
Sandblasting	Cartridge/bag filter and wear plate	Sandblasting cabin fan and recovery elevator	Abrasive grit and fine metal dust
Grinding/finishing	Local cartridge/bag filter	High-vacuum air-handling equipment and spark prevention	Sparks and fine metal dust

Equipment groups used in this industry

Furnace fume air handling equipment

Carries melting fume to the central filter.

Shake-out fan equipment

Provides high flow capacity under sudden high dust loads.

Sand preparation fan

Grinding extraction fan

Local high-vacuum extraction for metal dust.

Product families we offer for foundries

Foundry baghouse

Modular filter suited to high smoke/dust loads.

Cyclone/spark pre-separation

Protects the main filter from coarse hot particles.

High-temperature bag/cage

Based on furnace gas and abrasion.

Hood, duct, and damper

Weld fume capture and air balance.

Process air handling equipment

Based on fume peak and system resistance.

Rotary valve, screw conveyor, and bucket elevator

Sand/dust discharge and recovery.

How do we determine capacity and technical specifications?

Exact capacity is not set by a catalog name; it is determined by process flow rate, system pressure, temperature, material/dust behavior and discharge continuity.

technical data	Required site / process information	Impact on selection
Smoke peak	Furnace charging/pouring cycle	Determines the hood and fan equipment flow rate.
Silica/metal dust	Particle size distribution and abrasiveness	Determines media and protective plates.
Temperature/spark	Peak temperature and hot particles	Affects pre-separation and filter bag selection.
Ducting system	Hood opening, distance, and dampers	Determines capture efficiency.
Sand conveying	Elevator/conveyor capacity	Affects dust generation and discharge.
