PURPOSE:To decrease the number of cope boxes and to reduce an installation cost by installing mold transfer devices between a circulative mold forming line and a secondary cooling pool line and providing a cope box separator in the circulative mold forming line so that the cope box is separated and is subjected to secondary cooling if a long cooling time is needed. CONSTITUTION:A mold forming line 2 and a bottom mold forming line 3 are installed in parallel apart from each other at a prescribed space between the opposed longitudinal straight lines of a circulating mold forming line 1. Mold transfer devices 19, 20 are installed between the line 1 for the circulation between a top force and the lines 2, 3, and the secondary cooling pool line 13 adjacent thereto. A cope box separator 22 is provided in the position where the beginning end of the line 2 intersects with the line 1. The device 19 separates the cope box upon primary cooling and feeds the same to the line 13. The device 20 returns the casting mold to the line 1. |
