ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a process for the compression of molding sand in casting molds having a pattern plate with a pattern arranged therein. The molding sand is introduced loosely into the molding space located above the pattern plate and is thereafter fluidized to a final pressure of 20 bar maximum by means of a compressed-air surge acting on the molding sand followed by compression, by mechanical pressing. The process of the present invention provides a smooth pressure surge which is subdivided into at least a two part gradient in its pressure-rise time curve, so that the first part of the pressure-rise gradient takes place from 0.3 to 18 bar/sec to a pressure P.sub.1 and the second part has an increased pressure-rise gradient which takes place from 18 to 95 bar/sec. to a pressure P.sub.2 where P.sub.1 <P.sub.2 .ltoreq.20 bar. Subsequently, the P.sub.2 pressure is reduced in an essentially controlled manner, with a pressure-reduction gradient of a minimum of 3 bar/sec., and the pressing operation is initiated during the controlled pressure reduction.
