PROCEDIMENTO PER APPLICARE SFIATATOI O MATEROZZE A STAMPI PER FONDERIA DI TERRA PER STAMPI E DISPOSITIVO PER L'ESECUZIONE DEL PROCEDIMENTO

摘要

A method for forming at least one air vent or hole in a casting mold made of molding said and having a top flask with at least one blind hole originating at its parting plane with a bottom flask comprises the steps of pressurizing the mold cavity and drilling the air vent or hole into communication with the blind hole while drawing off the materials produced by drilling directly at the drilling point. An apparatus for performing the above-noted method includes, according to a preferred embodiment, a source of compressed gas having a pressure hood mountable over the inlet of the mold, and a drilling tool disposed within a suction hood which is placed in a sealing engagement with the top flask after the drilling tool has been properly aligned with the blind hole that is to form part of the air vent or hole.
