Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foundry Moulding Machines and Pattern Equipment During the past years marvelous advances have been made in the amount of production obtained from the daily efforts of man. This is true not only in the industrial establish ments, but it is true in practically all walks of life, and especially does this fact stand forth in our home life, transportation, trucking, farming, merchandising and in the industrial arts; it is evident in the steel mills, machine shops, pattern shops and in some few foundries, especially those foundries engaged in the manufacture of automobile cast ings. The increased production that is obtainable in these and in many other lines of daily activities, has been brought about by the utilization and application of scientific knowl edge, engineering principles and mechanical appliances. This is a mechanical age. The hard, drudging, physical effort is being taken out of labor. Labor is now, in nearly all instances. Being performed by the pulling of a lever, or the pressing of a button. The farmer's life is easy, plowing is performed by power, the wheelbarrow has become a truck, the Japanese jinrikisha an automobile, the hammer and chisel are replaced by lathe and planer; but to the foundry in general these contrasts will not apply, as the moulding in some plants is still being performed in the same manner as it has been for centuries past. The mould is still made in the old-style wood flask, hand rammed by the same old laborious method, and very little accomplished at the day's close. Instead of being fresh and vigorous, the man is exhausted, the production small, and in many cases the castings defective.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foundry Moulding Machines and Pattern Equipment: A Treatise Showing the Progress Made by the Foundries Using Machine Moulding Methods Uring the past years marvelous advances have been made in the amount of production obtained from the daily efforts of man.

Download or read book Pattern Making written by James Ritchey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pattern Making: A Practical Treatise for the Pattern Maker on Wood-Working and Wood Turning, Tools and Equipment, Construction of Simple and Complicated Patterns, Modern Molding Machines and Molding Practice Pattern Making is an art requiring the skill of a carpenter or wood turner combined with a rare mechanical knowledge and an ability to visualize the machines for which the patterns are to be made. This art has expanded wonderfully in the past few years just as other branches of our mechanical industries have developed, for the work of the pattern maker is the first step in most of the mechanical operations which result in a completed machine. Modern machinery is so complicated and has grown to such a size that the complexity of the patterns has increased in proportion. This has necessitated a greater skill on the part of the pattern maker in the design of the patterns and in the making of the cores, as well as a wider acquaintance with the various foundry methods which have their effect upon pattern construction. Furthermore, with the increase in the duplication of castings in modern manufacturing has come a wider use of metal master patterns, which have given rise to new responsibilities for the pattern maker, and have made him perforce a machinist as well as a carpenter. This article aims to cover fully the subject of pattern making, giving the tools and equipment necessary, the design details of simple and complicated patterns for typical cases, the use of green and dry sand cores, and finally the construction and design of a typical molding machine with details as to the manner in which the castings are designed to suit this machine. Both the original and the revising authors have had exceptional experience not only in practical work but in the teaching of the subject and it is the hope of the publishers that the book will be found of distinct practical value in its field.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Molding Machines: Thesis The objects in view in introducing molding machines are to save labor, to increase the output of the foundry, and to decrease the amount of skill required of the operators, thus reducing the cost of production; at the same time producing more uniform and, if possible, better castings than can be made by what is ordinar ily called hand or floor molding.

Download or read book Machine Molding Classic Reprint written by Wilfred Lewis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Machine Molding People are beginning to realize that the high cost of living is due chiefly to extravagance and waste, and that there is such a thing as Scientific Management1 by which human labor may be conserved and its products enormously increased. When rightly understood and applied this benefits the wage-earner, the employer and the public as well, and goes a long way toward the solution of the labor problem which is inseparable from the cost of living. Improvements in machinery, combined with power for its oper ation, have worked wonders in the output of labor, but only a frac tion of what can be realized from the same amount of human effort when more intelligently directed and controlled. The all - round mechanics of former years have well-nigh disappeared and good workmen, if obtained at all, must be recruited from such raw mate rial as can be found unemployed. There is always an abundance of the inefficient kind, and the problem now confronting the manu facturer is how to make it efficient. And valuable. The answer to this is to be found in the introduction of an educational system of management not unlike the laboratory system adopted in some of our schools and colleges. Men must not be left to their own devices to pick up-such knowledge as may make them inferior or merely good enough workmen. They must be systematically taught to per form the work assigned to them by shop bosses or foremen who are interested in the result, and whose chie'f function it is to teach. In this way every shop in the country may become in effect a trade school of the most valuable kind, in which the pupils are not only taught how to do' certain things but how to do them quickly and well and earn a substantial reward commensurate with the skill attained. No labor-saving machine can produce results without human aid in one way or another, and many a machine, good for its purpose, has been abandoned to the scrap heap, not from any in herent defect or inability to effect a saying, but simply as the result of awkward or inefficient handling. We must have efficient work men as well as efficient machines to obtain the best results, and foundries need both as much as, or possibly more than any other kind of operating plant to-day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Iron Founder Supplement: A Complete Illustrated Exposition of the Art of Casting in Iron, Also, the Founding of Statues; The Art of Taking Casts, Pattern Modelling; Useful Formulas and Tables The all-important subject of Mixing Cast Iron is dis cussed in these pages from a somewhat different stand point to that usually taken. Foundry equipment and appliances receive special notice in detail, including a table of dimensions for ladles, and the latest application of machinery for moulding as well as other purposes in the foundry. Melting in Cupolas and Reverberatory Furnaces occupies a prominent place in the book and the original table of instructions for the management of cupolas will no doubt be appreciated by all who, for lack of time or a disinclination to ponder these subjects, are not in posses sion of such data. The founding of Chilled Car-wheels is fully ex plained and suitably illustrated, as also is the production of 'f Malleable-iron Castings, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: This Manual is intended primarily for use by foundry personnel aboard repair ships and tenders. The recommended practices are based on procedures proved workable under Navy conditions and are supplemented by information from industrial sources. The Manual is divided into two general sections. The first section, chapters 1 through 13, contains information of a general nature, such as "How Metals Solidify," "Designing a Casting," "Sands for Molds and Cores," "Gates, Risers, and Chills," and "Description and Operation of Melting Furnaces." Subjects covered in these chapters are generally applicable to all of the metals that may be cast aboard ship. The second section, chapters 14 through 21, contains information on specific types of alloys, such as "Copper-Base Alloys," "Aluminum-Base Alloys," "Cast Iron," and "Steel." Specific melting practices, suggestions for sand mixes, molding practices, gating, and risering are covered in these chapters. This manual has been written with the "how-to-do-it" idea as the principal aim. Discussions as to the "why" of certain procedures have been kept to a minimum. This manual contains information that should result in the production of consistently better castings by repair ship personnel.
