Core Shooting Machine

A core shooting machine is an industrial device used in foundries for producing sand cores, which are essential in metal casting processes to create internal cavities or intricate shapes in cast metal parts. The machine shoots a sand mixture (typically bonded with resin) into a core box, where it hardens to form the desired core shape.
  • Types of Core Shooting Machines:

  • Cold Box Core Shooting Machine: Uses a cold-curing process where the sand mixture is shot into the core box, and then a gas (like amine) is passed through to harden the core. This method is fast and efficient for high-volume production.

  • Hot Box Core Shooting Machine: Uses a heated core box to cure the sand mixture, typically resin-bonded sand. The heat speeds up the hardening process, making it ideal for larger cores.

  • Shell Core Shooting Machine: Produces shell cores by shooting a thin layer of resin-coated sand into a heated core box. The heat causes the sand to form a hard shell around the cavity, with the excess sand being removed.

  • High Precision: Core shooting machines create highly accurate and detailed cores, allowing for the production of complex castings.

  • Fast Production: The process is quick and efficient, making it ideal for mass production environments.

  • Automated Control: Reduces the need for manual labor and increases consistency in the production of sand cores.

  • Minimized Defects: Cores produced by these machines have fewer defects such as blowholes or poor dimensional accuracy, improving the quality of the final cast metal products.

  • Versatility: Core shooting machines can handle a variety of core sizes and shapes, making them suitable for a wide range of casting applications.
