The present invention discloses a method and apparatus for compacting artificial carbon bodies for use as electrodes in aluminum electrolysis and for lining the cathode portions of an electric furnace and using them as anodes in such furnace, wherein the artificial carbon mass to be compacted is placed into a mold and becomes jarred from below by a freely movable bottom member and at the same time it is loaded from above through a freely movable cover member by a gradually increasing pressure which may be accompanied by additional jarring through the cover member and through the side walls of the mold.
