Rotary Coolers

GK’s DUCTA-COOL™ Rotary Cooling Drum is a high-performance, multi-functional rotary solution that streamlines your foundry’s cooling and sand conditioning processes. Combining sand cooling, sand and casting separation, and casting cooling into one robust rotary drum, the DUCTA-COOL™ reduces maintenance requirements and downtime. Designed for both efficiency and durability, DUCTA-COOL™ drums use a gentle tumbling action and controlled air circulation to create an evaporative cooling effect—significantly lowering casting temperatures while protecting casting integrity.

DUCTA-COOL™ not only cools and blends sand but also breaks down sand lumps and prepares sand for immediate reuse—enhancing the quality of molds and improving sand system efficiency. Castings are cushioned in a bed of sand during tumbling to reduce damage, minimizing scrap and rework. Integrated water addition systems ensure the right moisture levels for optimal evaporative cooling and sand conditioning. Built with heavy-duty materials and backed by GK’s industry expertise, DUCTA-COOL™ offers maximum uptime and dependable performance in even the most demanding foundry environments.
