Classification of moulding sands
According to their use in the foundry, moulding sands areclassied into following categories:
1. Green sand:
The term " green sand " is known principally because of the
moisture content within the sand. The sand undergoes a
" mulling" process in which various clay and chemical
additives that act as binders are blended with the sand,
which results in a compound which is suitable for the sand
moulding process.
![Page 3: Patternsbn ghm](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052607/56d6c0591a28ab30169a0242/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

It is sand used in the wet condition for making the
mould. It is mixture of silica sand with 15-25 per cent
clay and 6-8 per cent water.
Green sand moulds are not dried and metal is poured
in them in the wet condition.
eing damp the sand can !e easily worked with handto gi"e it any desired shape.
#his sand is used for producing small to medium
si$ed moulds which are not "ery complex.

2. %ry sand&
%ry sand is the green sand that has !een dried or!aked after preparing the mould.
%rying sand gi"es strength to the mould so that it
can !e used for larger castings.

'. (oam sand&
(oam sand is sand containing up to 5) *clay which has !een worked to the
consistency of !uilder mortar.
#his sand is used for loam sand moulds formaking "ery hea"y castings usually with the
help of sweeps and skeleton patterns.

+. ,arting sand&
#his sand is used during making of the mould toensure that green sand does not stick to the pattern
and the cope and drag parts can !e easily separated
for remo"ing the pattern without causing any damage
to the mould.

5. acing sand&
acing sand is the sand which co"ers the pattern all around it. #he remaining !ox is
filled with ordinary floor sand.
acing sand forms the face of the mould andcomes in direct contact with the molten metal
when it is poured.
![Page 8: Patternsbn ghm](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052607/56d6c0591a28ab30169a0242/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

6. acking sand&
acking sand is the !ulk of the sand used to!ack up the facing sand and to fill up the
"olume of the flask.
#he main purpose for the use of !acking sandis to reduce the cost of moulding.
![Page 9: Patternsbn ghm](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052607/56d6c0591a28ab30169a0242/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Green sand moulding process
Green sand moulding is more wide de"elop
than any other process.
Green sand moulding is replacing many ofthe more expensi"e moulding methods as
sand control is !eing
applied.

Single piece pattern:
This is the simplest type of pattern, exactly like thedesired casting. For making a mould, the pattern is
accommodated either in cope or drag.
Used for producing a few large castings, for example,
stuffing box of steam engine.
![Page 29: Patternsbn ghm](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052607/56d6c0591a28ab30169a0242/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
7/25/2019 Patternsbn ghm
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/patternsbn-ghm 29/37
0
Split pattern:
These patterns are split along the parting plane(which may be flat or irregular surface) to facilitate
the extraction of the patternout of the mould before
the pouring operation. For a more complex casting,
the pattern may be split in more than two parts.
![Page 30: Patternsbn ghm](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052607/56d6c0591a28ab30169a0242/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
7/25/2019 Patternsbn ghm
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/patternsbn-ghm 30/37
25
Loose piece pattern:
When a one piece solid pattern has projections or backdrafts which lie above or below the parting plane, it is
impossible to with draw it from the mould. With
such patterns, the projections are made with the help of
loose pieces. One drawback of loose feces is that their
shifting is possible during ramming.
![Page 31: Patternsbn ghm](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052607/56d6c0591a28ab30169a0242/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
7/25/2019 Patternsbn ghm
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/patternsbn-ghm 31/37
21
Gated pattern:
A gated pattern is simply one or more loose patterns
having attached gates and runners.Because of their higher cost, these patterns are used
for producing small castings in mass production
systems and on molding machines.
![Page 32: Patternsbn ghm](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052607/56d6c0591a28ab30169a0242/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
7/25/2019 Patternsbn ghm
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/patternsbn-ghm 32/37
20
Match plate pattern:
A match plate pattern is a split pattern having the cope and
drags portions mounted on opposite sides of a plate (usuallymetallic), called the "match plate" that conforms to the
contour of the parting surface.
The gates and runners are also mounted on the match plate, so
that very little hand work is required. This results in higherproductivity. This type of pattern is used for a large number of
castings.
Piston rings of I.C. engines are produced by this process.
![Page 33: Patternsbn ghm](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052607/56d6c0591a28ab30169a0242/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
7/25/2019 Patternsbn ghm
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/patternsbn-ghm 33/37
22
Sweep pattern:
A sweep is a section or board (wooden) of propercontour that is rotated about one edge to shape mould
cavities having shapes of rotational symmetry. This type
of pattern is used when a casting of large size is to be
produced in a short time. Large kettles of C.I. are made
by sweep patterns.
![Page 34: Patternsbn ghm](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052607/56d6c0591a28ab30169a0242/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
7/25/2019 Patternsbn ghm
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/patternsbn-ghm 34/37
23
Cope and drag pattern:
A cope and drag pattern is a split pattern havingthecope and drag portions each mounted on
separate match plates. These patterns are used
when in the production of large castings; the
complete moulds are too heavy and unwieldy tobe handled by a single worker.
![Page 35: Patternsbn ghm](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052607/56d6c0591a28ab30169a0242/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
7/25/2019 Patternsbn ghm
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/patternsbn-ghm 35/37
27
Skeleton pattern:
For large castings having simple geometrical shapes,skeleton patterns are used. Just like sweep patterns, these
are simple wooden frames that outline the shape of
the part to be cast and are also used as guides by the
molder in the hand shaping of the mould.This type of pattern is also used in pit or floor molding
process.
![Page 36: Patternsbn ghm](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052607/56d6c0591a28ab30169a0242/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

various purposes.
