The carbon anode quality has a significant impact on the production of primary aluminum. Their performance can be evaluated by their various mechanical, electrical, physical, and chemical, properties such as density, electric resistivity, CO2 and air reactivities. The focus of this work is to study the various parameters of the vibro-compaction, which is one of the critical steps in the process of anode manufacturing. In this work, a dynamic model of a vibro-compactor is developed. The vibro-compactor is modeled as a rigid mass suspended on springs and dampers and subjected to harmonic external excitation. This model is used to identify the optimal conditions of the vibro-compacting process. These conditions are obtained through a correlation between the analytical vibro-compaction parameters and data from an industrial vibro-compactor. The use of optimum parameters will help improve the anode performance and, consequently, lead to better productivity and reduction on environmental impact.
