    OldFoundryman on YT has built something with at least a similar action. No conveyor and all that, but rotating pins that are fluffing the sand as it moves through.

    Back in the 1970's i built one with a belt
    For years it was only sand preparation in my shop. Later I pickup a Muller and put sand cutter under Muller to move sand near molding machine ready to use.

    I Use my sand cutter till sold with my company in 2004 with same belt.

    I am building one like oldfoundryman. For green sand I think it will be awesome.

    They work great for both green sand, Petrobond and K-bond sand.

    The first step is mix the sand and water
    Next is to use sand cutter this give a better mixing of (sand and water) and aerator the sand ready for molding.

    The only down side It does not first time replace a mulling
    So all sand must be purchase mull or natural bonded sand.
