Abstract
The invention concerns a method and device for filling at least one casting mould (10) with a castable, liquid compound, in particular casting resin. In order to decrease the mould-occupation time considerably, the reactivity of the casting compound is firstly increased at least during the filling phase for the at least one casting mould (10) by the supply of energy and is then decreased by the removal of energy to a value at which the casting compound has a relatively long service life. Heat exchanges (7) are proposed as means for heating and, if necessary, cooling the casting compound.
Claims12
Method of filling at least one casting mold with a casting resin compound comprising the steps of:
- delivering said casting compound to said at least one casting mold during a filling phase;
- supplying energy to said casting compound upstream of a runner leading to said casting mold;
- removing energy from said casting compound upstream of said runner leading to said casting mold;
- wherein a reactivity of the casting compound, at least during the filling phase for the at least one casting mold, is initially increased by said step of supplying energy and is then reduced by said step of removing energy to a value at which the casting compound has a relatively long service life.
