CASTING METHOD AND MOULD STRING

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of casting articles having an axis of symmetry in parted sand mould parts (5) of a mould-string plant and to a mould string (12) of vertically parted sand mould parts (5) of a mould-string plant for casting articles having an axis of symmetry (15). According to the invention the axis of symmetry of the articles to be cast is substantially vertical. By placing the axis of symmetry (15) in this manner it is possible to let the runner (9) meet the mould cavity (6) at its centre, whereby a larger orifice between the runner and the mould cavity (6) can be obtained.
