Take Guess Work Out
OF MOlding Sands

Ithaca, n. Y, July 9-(P-Science
has taken the guess work out of an
other industrial process.
1t has evolved standard methods
for testing molding sands which en-
able the foundryman to tell whether
the sand he is using for a given cast
ing has the right properties for pre-
venting flaws, whether it is strong
enough and whether it contains the
proper venting qualities.
Worked at Cornell
The standardization. which already
is effectlng substantial savings in the
industry, has been perfected by an in
tefnatlonal research committee or
ganized by the American Foundry
mems Association and the National
Research Council. Much of the re-
search work that attended the devel-
opment of the standard tests has been
done in the laboratory of geology at
Cornell University.
AS result. the committee has rec
commended several pieces of appara-
tus for testing the strength, perme-
ability and texture of molding sands.
Previously the foundryman had had
no accurate means of determining
whether he was using the sand that
exactly met his requirements and
consequently many castings were
spoiled due to experimentation with
various grades.
Test Before Starting
Now, however, he can test his sand
before he starts a casting, thus often
eliminating the possibility of costly
mistakes. With the same methods he
can maintain daily control over the
properties of his sand heaps
One of the factors leading to the or
ganization of the research committee
was the gradual depletion of the de-
posts of high grade molding sand
and the increased costs of shipments
from new and less accessible beds.
The annual sand bill of the American
foundrymen, it was estimated, had
scared to SS,00O,00O, and so scientists
