Steel, iron, and most non-ferrous alloy castings can be obtained by sand casting, so it is widely used in casting applications. The molding machine is a device used to produce sand molds in casting. By filling sand, loose molding sand is filled into the sand box; compacting the molding sand, the loose molding sand in the sand box is compacted by different methods such as vibration, compaction, vibration pressure, and injection pressure, so that the sand mold has the necessary strength during transportation and pouring; demolding, using different mechanisms to remove the pattern from the compacted sand mold.
