<p>A two tiered mold handling system (210) for use in a sand mold casting machine which comprises a two tiered conveyor for pouring and cooling, or a two tiered conveyor for cooling only (214). The two-tiered conveyor has an upper linear track (250) and a lower linear track (252) disposed at a lower vertical elevation. The tracks carry a plurality of mold pallets along an endless path around the upper and lower linear tracks. The application is directed toward several concepts including two tiered pouring conveyors in combination with two tiered cooling conveyors, two tiered combination pouring and cooling conveyors, and one tiered pouring combination with two tiered cooling conveyors to provide a lower pouring elevation.</p> |
