The 'eyebrow' WJ legs on intake side of the casting are frequently left in the mold when the casting is ejected. The rate of which they are left in the mold increases as the cores/casting are held in the mold longer than the minimum extraction time of 300 seconds. This requires the operators to blow out all of the core pieces before the next cycle. When the core pieces are not blown out completely, we create sand inclusion/mold slide not closing/broken core/core chip casting scrap. All the base vents in this particular area are plugged off an not being used to vent core gas from the WJ core. Cap over the 'eyebrow' WJ legs on the intake side on 1 RH mold. Utilize design criteria from Bedford for capping over WJ legs (2.0mm gap). Must maintain WJ core locators in these 3 areas. Cap over areas will get removed by current process that cuts the head deck surface. Greskowiak will designate the mold number to modify. Reason for Change: Ensure the removal of all 'eyebrow' WJ legs from the mold. Reduction of sand inclusion/mold slide not closing/broken core/core chip scrap.
