ISO 23472is an international standard on vocabulary for foundry machinery. ISO 23472‑2 provides vocabulary on molding and core making machines and other equipment related to the non-permanent mold casting process to reduce misunderstanding among the parties involved in foundry machinery.
ISO 23472‑2 is the second part of a multi-part series that defines a set of terms and definitions of molding and core making machines and other equipment related to the non-permanent mold casting process in foundry machinery.
ISO 23472‑2 applies to standard development in the foundry machinery field, technical documentation, related scientific and technical publications, etc.
ISO 23472‑2 on vocabulary on molding and core making machines is relevant to:
The documentation has given rise to numerous international exchanges of both intellectual and material nature. These exchanges often become difficult, either because of the great variety of terms used in various fields or languages to express the same concept, or because of the absence of, or the imprecision of, useful concepts. To avoid misunderstandings due to this situation and facilitate such exchanges there is a need for select terms to be used in various languages or in various countries to express the same concept and establish definitions providing satisfactory equivalents for the various terms in different languages.
ISO 23472 provides definitions in English that are rigorous, uncomplicated, and can be understood by all concerned.
ISO 23472‑2 provides you with definitions that are suitable for diverse application within foundry machinery, which includes machines and equipment adapted in each stage of the processes within different casting processes. ISO 23472‑2 also assists by providing terms and definitions of molding and core making machines and other equipment related to the non-permanent mold casting process. ISO 23472‑2 includes basic concepts specifically concerning structural characteristics and functions, important mechanisms and parts, main technological processes and parameters of various molding machines, core making machines, knock-out equipment, equipment for molding sand preparation and sand reclamation, equipment for lost foam casting and investment casting, and other related equipment.
With compliance and obedience to ISO 23472‑2, you can standardise a common language for terms used in foundry machinery to avoid misunderstanding among various parties involved.
