Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, even in cases where castings can be machined into acceptable castings, for example, if the casting is slightly flawed due to half-mold misfits causing defects in castings adjacent to the parting line of the mold, such machining or cleaning requires energy and labor, and may expose metal foundry workers or operators to harsh or unhealthy working conditions

Embodiment Construction

[0151] In the following description, a superscript Roman numeral added to a reference sign indicates that the marked element has the same or similar function as the element designated by the non-superscript reference sign, but is different in structure.

[0152] When other embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawings, elements that are new relative to earlier shown embodiments have new reference numerals, while previously shown elements are referenced as stated above. The same elements have been assigned the same reference numerals in different embodiments, and these elements will not be explained otherwise.

[0153] figure 1 A metal foundry is shown, designated in its entirety by reference number 2 . The metal foundry 2 includes a plurality of metal foundry machines which will now be described. The first metal foundry machine is a green sand storage and supply machine 10, which includes a storage tank 12 for holding the molding sand, an elevator 14 for receiving t...

Abstract

The invention provides a method (200) of operating a metal foundry (2), in particular a green sand metal foundry (2): so as to lower the environmental impact of the operation of the metal foundry. The metal foundry (2) comprises at least one metal foundry machine (10) such as at least one of a vertical green sand moulding machine (30). mould conveyor (50), shake out machine (60) or a sand cooler (70). The at least one metal foundry machine (10) produces at least one environmental disturbance: when used in the operation of the metal foundry (2), The method (200) comprises the steps of obtaining at least one measurement of the at least one environmental disturbance (210), obtaining at least one instruction (220) of the at least one metal foundry machine on the basis of the at least one measurement, the at least one instruction configured to cause a decrease of the at least one environmental interference, and using the at least one instruction (280) to operate the at least one metal foundry machine (10). The at least one instruction is preferred obtained using a lookup table or a function based on the at least one measurement. A system (100) for performing the method and a metal foundry (2 comprising the system are also provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of operating a metal foundry, in particular a green sand metal foundry, and a system for performing the method. The invention also relates to a metal foundry comprising such a system. Background technique [0002] Technologies for the automatic operation of foundries are well known. US5125448 discloses an automatic casting plant in which information about the properties of each individual mold is sensed in a molding machine and used in a downstream pouring unit for controlling the pouring of molten metal to the mold to which the information relates . This information is disclosed as being relevant to the type of mold, whether the core has been placed in the mold, whether the mold is properly secured, and whether the mold is unsuitable for pouring for other reasons. Such information can be used to control the pouring unit to properly position the pouring nozzle relative to the mould, or to not pour the partic...
