How do they match: Foundry Mold and Coremakers

  • Green Sand Molder

  • Form and assemble slab cores around patterns, and position wire in mold sections to reinforce molds, using hand tools and glue.
  • Lift upper mold sections from lower sections, and remove molded patterns.
  • Move and position workpieces, such as mold sections, patterns, and bottom boards, using cranes, or signal others to move workpieces.
  • Position cores into lower sections of molds, and reassemble molds for pouring.
  • Position patterns inside mold sections, and clamp sections together.
  • Sift and pack sand into mold sections, core boxes, and pattern contours, using hand or pneumatic ramming tools.
  • Sprinkle or spray parting agents onto patterns and mold sections to facilitate removal of patterns from molds.
