  14. Sand Casting Process A. Fundamental of sand casting 1. Casting 2. Mold 3. Pattern Casting Terms : • Mold: It contains a cavity whose geometry determines the shape of the cast part. • Cope: It is the upper half of the mold. • Drag: It is the bottom half of the mold. • Flask: A metal or wood frame, without fixed top or bottom, in which the mold is formed.

  15. Sand Casting Process A. Fundamental of sand casting 1. Casting 2. Mold 3. Pattern • Parting line: This is the dividing line between the two molding flasks that makes up the mold. • Pattern: It is the replica of the final object to be made. The mold cavity is made with the help of pattern. • Molding sand: Sand, which binds strongly without losing its permeability to air or gases. It is a mixture of silica sand, clay, and moisture inappropriate proportions.

  16. Sand Casting Process A. Fundamental of sand casting 1. Casting 2. Mold 3. Pattern • Facing sand: The small amount of carbonaceous material sprinkled on the inner surface of the mold cavity to give a better surface finishto the castings. • Core: A separate part of the mold, made of sand and generally baked, which is used to create openings and various shaped cavities in the castings. • Chaplets: Chaplets are used to support the cores inside the mold cavity to take care of its own weight.

  17. Sand Casting Process A. Fundamental of sand casting 1. Casting 2. Mold 3. Pattern • Pouring basin: A small funnel shaped cavity at the top of the mold into which the molten metal is poured. • Sprue: The passage through which the molten metal, from the pouring basin, reaches the mold cavity. • Runner: The channel through which the molten metal is carried from the sprue to the gate. • Gate: is that portion of runner through which the molten metal enters the mold cavity.

  18. Sand Casting Process 1. Fundamental of sand casting 1. Casting 2. Mold 3. Pattern • Riser: it serves as reservoirs to supply the molten metal necessary to prevent shrinkage during solidification. • Vent: Small opening in the mold to facilitate escape of air and gases.

Pattern 2.2 Constituent of Molding Sand The main constituents of molding sand involve silica sand, binder, moisture content and additives. Silica sand (88%-92%) • Silica sand form the main constituent of molding sand having enough refractoriness which can impart strength, stability and permeability to molding and core sand. • The silica sand can be specified according to the size (small, medium and large silica sand grain) and the shape (angular, sub-angular and rounded). • But along with silica small amounts of iron oxide, alumina, lime stone, magnesia, soda and potash are present as impurities.

Pattern 2.2 Constituent of Molding Sand Binder (6%-12%) • In general, the binders can be either inorganic or organic substance. • The inorganic group includes clay, sodium silicate etc. • In foundry shop, the clay acts as binder which may be Ball Clay, Fire Clay, Limonite, Fuller’s earth and Bentonite. • Organic group binders are dextrin, molasses, cereal binders, linseed oil and resins like phenol formaldehyde, urea formaldehyde etc. • Among all the above binders, the bentonite variety of clay is the most common.

Pattern 2.2 Constituent of Molding Sand Moisture (3%-6%) • The effect of clay and water decreases permeability with increasing clay and moisture content. • The green compressive strength first increases with the increase in clay content, but after a certain value, it starts decreasing.

Pattern 2.5 Steps involved in making Sand Mold • The first step in making mold is to place the patternon the molding board. • The drag is placed on the board • Dry facing sand is sprinkled over the board and pattern to provide a non sticky layer. • Molding sand is then riddled in to cover the pattern with the fingers; then the drag is completely filled. • The sand is then firmly packed in the drag by means of hand rammers. The ramming must be proper i.e. it must neither be too hard or soft. • After the ramming is over, the excess sand is leveled off with a straight bar known as a strike rod. • With the help of vent rod, vent holes are made in the drag to the full depth of the flask as well as to the pattern tofacilitate the removal of gases during pouring and solidification.

Pattern 2.5 Steps involved in making Sand Mold • The finished drag flask is now rolled over to the bottom board exposing the pattern. • Cope of the pattern is then placed over the drag pattern with the help of locating pins. • The dry parting sand is sprinkled all over the drag and on the pattern. • A sprue pin for making the sprue passage is located at a small distance from the pattern. Also, riser pin, if required, isplaced at an appropriate place. • The operation of filling, ramming and venting of the cope proceed in the same manner as performed in the drag. • The sprue and riser pins are removed first and a pouring basin is scooped out at the top to pour the liquid metal.

Pattern 2.5 Steps involved in making Sand Mold • Then pattern from the cope and drag is removed and facing sand in the form of paste is applied all over the mold cavity and runners which would give the finished casting a good surface finish. • The mold is now assembled. The mold now is ready for pouring

Pattern Pattern is the replica of the final object to be made by the casting process, with some modifications. The main modifications are the addition of pattern allowances . If the casting is to be hollow, additional patterns called coresare used to create these cavities in the finished product. The quality of the casting produced depends upon the material of the pattern, its design, and construction.

Advantages and disadvantages Advantages: The metal casting process is extensively used in manufacturing because of its many advantages. • Molten material can flow into very small sections so that complicated shapes can be made by this process. As a result, many other operations, such as machining, forging, and welding, can be minimized or eliminated. • It is possible to cast practically any material that is ferrous or non-ferrous. • As the metal can be placed exactly where it is required, large saving in weight can be achieved. • The necessary tools required for casting molds are very simple and inexpensive. As a result, for production of a small lot, it is the idealprocess. • There are certain parts made from metals and alloys that can only be processed this way. • Size and weight of the product is not a limitation for the casting process.

Advantages and disadvantages Limitations: • Dimensional accuracy and surface finish of the castings made by sand casting processes are a limitation to this technique. Many newcasting processes have been developed which can take into consideration the aspects of dimensional accuracy and surface finish. Some of these processes are die casting process, investment casting process, vacuum-sealed molding process, and shell molding process. • The metal casting process is a labor intensive process
