We have done some experiment in a new moulding method-Air Setting Process. This new process (we call this A.S.P. for short) has indeed a point of excellent merit in its peculiar strength. But, some troubles exists in the fact that the process is attended with veining, for which any reliable way of prevention has not been estalished. Therefore, the authors, taking the following five itesms into considerations, carried out a series of experiments and tried to establish a new A.S.P. procedure free from the veining.
1. The chemical reaction between mould face and molten metal.
2. The character and the content of binder and mixture of sand.
3. The sand ramming.
4. The presence of surface paint and its kind.
5. The aridity of mixture sand.
Followings made clear by the experiments are as follows:
1. The relation between the degree ramming of sand and the “Veining” is not definite in the authors experimental range.
2. The veining can be prevented under the following conditions.
i) For moulds having 3% drying oil, drying temperature shall be 250°C
ii) For moulds having 2% drying oil, drying temperature shall be in the range of 200∼300°C.
iii) When the surface paint was used in case i), temperature may be 200°C.
3. The effect of mixture to prevent veining is not so remarkable.
