STEPPED CONE PULLEY
Aim
To make the mould for the given stepped cone pulley.
Material required
• Moulding board
• Riser pin
• Moulding box
• Sprue pin
• Green sand
• Rammer
• Trowel
• Lifter
• Riddle
• Draw spike
• Gate cutter
• Bellow
• Vent rod
Procedure
1. Place the moulding board on a horizontal surface.
2. A suitable core is prepared with the help of core
box.
3. The drag box is placed above the moulding board.
Now the pattern is kept at center of drag.
4. Now parting sand in sprinkled before we keep
pattern.
5. Facing sand is sprinkled over the pattern to a
depth of 5mm. then green sand is filled over it.
6. Proper ramming is done on the green sand to get a
air tight packing.
7. Excess sand is removed by strike off bar.
8. The drag box is inverted upside down.
9. The cope box is placed over the drag box and
locked.
10. The riser pin sprue pin placed at right position
and green sand is filled over the pattern.
11. Proper ramming is done on the green sand to get
air tight packing with strike off bar leaving is done.
12. Now riser pin and sprue pin get removed from the
green sand mould. The pattern is removed by draw spike tool.
13. Gate is prepared using gate cutter and core is
placed vertically inside the cavity.
14. The vent holes are made with vent rod and cope.
Result
Thus the mould is created for given stepped cone pulley.
