2.  A ‘MOULDING MACHINE’ may be
defined as a device which have a large
number of correlated parts and
mechanisms ,transmits and directs various
forces and motions in required directions
so as to help the preparation of a sand
mould

3.  RAMMING OF MOULDING SAND
 ROLLING OVER OR INVERTING THE MOULD
 RAPPING THE PATTERN
 WITHDRAWING THE PATTERN FROM THE
MOULD

4.  Jar or Jolt Machine
 Squeezer machine
 Jolt - squeezer Machine
 Slinging machines

5.  This machine consists of an air operated piston
and cylinder.
 piston is suddenly released,resulting in an even
packing of sand around the pattern in the flask
 It is known as ‘JOLTING’

6.  The pattern is placed over the machine table ,
followed by the moulding flask . In hand-operation
machines the machine platen is lifted by a hand-
operated mechanism whereas in power machines it is
lifted by a action of air pressure on a piston in the
cylinder in the same way as in jolt machine.the
different is that the table is not dropped from height
but it raised gradually . On the top of machine colomn
is provided an overhead plate and the sand in the
flask is squeezed between this plate and upward rising
table.

7.  . This enables a uniform pressing of sand in the
flask. A specific advantage of power operated
machines over handoperated ones is that more
pressure can be applied in the former,which
facilities handling of a wider range of jobs.

9.  This machine, as is clear from its name, combines
the principle of both jolt and squeezer machines.
The complete mould is prepared on this machine
 First the drag is filled with sand and then rammed
by the jolting action of the table.
 Then the cope is filled up with sand and the latter
rammed by squeezing between the overhead
plate and the machine table

10.  The overhead plate is then swung aside and sand
on the top levelled off, cope removed and the drag
vibrated by air vibrator.
 . This is followed by removel of match plate and
closing of two halves of the mould for pouring.

12.  These machines are used for filling and uniform of
sand in moulds and are particularly adopted with
advantage for large moulds. They can also be
used in conjunction with other moulding devices,
like rollover machines and pattern draw machines,
so as to eliminate more manual operations.
