4-101 Series

• Fast Production Cycle
• Rugged Construction, Easy Maintenance
• Reduce Core/Mold Shift Problems
• Proven Performance
• Hydraulic Operation

Shalco 4-101 Series cold box core/mold machines help you utilize cold box processes to the utmost by reducing machine motion and core box movement to a minimum.

The stationary blow chamber eliminates spillage and sand movement in the blow head. The core box is moved only in the vertical plane, so there is no sand shift in the core box prior to gassing, producing more consistently accurate cores or molds. A high capacity blow valve speeds core box filling, and the shuttle-type gassing head expedites introduction of the vaporized catalyst. High pressure hydraulic core box clamping assures tight seals during the blow and gas portions of the cycle.

Shalco 4-101 Series machines are available in four standard models, with core box size ranging from 20” x 20” x 8” (508 x 508 x 203 mm) for the Model B to 20” x 28” x 8” (508 x 711 x 203 mm) for models C, D & E maximum blowing core weight is 30 lbs. (14 kg) for the Model B, 55 lbs. (25 kg) for Models C, D & E. All machines have a maximum tooling weight of 2000 lbs. (907 kg). Core pickoff removal stroke is parallel to gassing plate for Models B & C, at right angle to gassing plate in Models D & E.

The ruggedly constructed 4-101 Series machine features rigid, all welded tubular steel frames, and are supplied fully equipped with all cylinders, valves and controls ready for installation and hook-up. Electrical controls are either relay-operated solenoid valves, or PC controls. All production sequences are timed automatically, with sand fill and gassing cycles precisely metered for consistent quality and control, cycle after cycle.

Shalco 4-101 Series machines combine proven high production capability with easy operation and low maintenance cost. There straight-forward design and rugged construction have made them a popular choice of both jobbing and production foundries around the world for more than a decade.

4-103 Series

Shalco 4-103 Series machines make the most of commonly used cold box processes by reducing motions to a minimum. The blow chamber is stationary, to reduce spillage and sand movement in the blow had. The core box is moved only in the vertical plane, to eliminate the possibility of sand movement in the core box before gassing. The shuttle type gassing head speeds introduction of the vaporized catalyst.

Complete controls, used with the available optional features, allows 4-103 machines to be operated as completely automatic units.

Shalco 4-103 Series are available in different capacities. Standard models have core boxes of 40” x 40” x 9” (1016 x 1016 x 229 mm). Maximum blown core weight is 200 lbs. (90kg) for the 4-103 and 250 lbs. (113 kg) for the 4-104. Model A machines have a maximum tooling weight of 4000 lbs. (1814 kg) while the Model 4-104 can handle core boxes up to 4500 lbs. (2045 kg).

The ruggedly constructed 4-103 Series machines feature rigid, all welded tubular steel frames, and are supplied fully equipped with all cylinders, valves and controls ready for installation and hook-up. Controls are either relay-operated solenoid valves, or programmable. All production sequences are timed automatically, with sand fill and gassing cycles precisely metered for consistent quality and control, cycle after cycle.

Standard Equipment:

• Automatic controls
• Regulator for control of blow pressure
• Filter & lubricator for air system
