Mold Baking Machine

Mold-baking machine

 
Description:

A mold baking machine typically refers to a machine used to heat or bake molds—often in the foundry, automotive, or plastic/rubber molding industries. The main purpose is to prepare or cure molds before they are used in casting or forming parts.

Common Features

• Temperature Control: Accurate thermal control to prevent mold damage or poor-quality parts.

• Timer Settings: For automated baking cycles.

• Chambers/Ovens: Single or multi-chamber configurations.

• Conveyor System: In continuous production setups.

Applications

• Automotive: Engine blocks, brake components.

• Aerospace: High-precision components.

• Tooling & Die: Pre-heating metal dies before production.

• Plastic & Rubber: Preheat molds for compression/injection molding.

Types of Mold Baking Machines

1. Foundry Mold Baking Ovens

   • Used to dry or harden sand molds.

   • Essential in metal casting to ensure molds are dry and structurally sound.

   • Features: High-temperature capacity (150–300°C), uniform heat distribution, programmable control.

2. Core Baking Ovens

   • For baking sand cores (the internal part of a casting).

   • Similar to mold ovens but sometimes more compact.

3. Plastic/Rubber Mold Preheating Machines

   • Heats metal molds used in injection molding or compression molding.

   • Ensures proper temperature before injecting material.

   • Can be oil-heated, electrically heated, or use cartridge heaters.

4. PTFE/Resin Mold Baking Machines

   • Used in composite or PTFE part manufacturing.

   • Provides controlled curing environment for resin-based molds.
