Working Principle of the Sand Maker The materials falling to the Sand Making Machine are divided into two parts by the distributor‚ with one part getting into the high-speed rotating impellers through the distributor‚ which are accelerated quickly in the impellers‚ reaching 100 times the acceleration of gravity‚ and then cast at the speed of 60 to 70 m/s from the three distributed passageways of the impellers and impacted by the materials falling around the distributor. Then they are impacted together
