Explanations
The direct dependence of casting quality on pattern quality makes DIN 1611 en import
ant Standard for the industry concerned, and DIN 1511 can only live up to expectations
by reflecting the state of the technique at all times. With the advent of the newer mate
Used in pattern-marking practice, the 1957 edition of this Standard had become
‘due for revision,
‘The quality category classification of pattern equipment now also covers patterns made
of east resin and foamed materials. In the interests af more rapid access to the inform.
ation contained, the features characterizing pattern construction have been presented in
tabulated form,
‘The question regarding the wear limit of pattern equipment during its use is of general
interest through the interaction betweon the dimensional accuracy of the castings and
the quality of the pattern, and therefore needs to he dealt with at least under the topic
of “casting” even if not directly coupled with the pattern equinment. The Normenaus-
schuss Giessereiwvesen (Standards Committee Foundry Pras
siunestions and experienen concesnest with this subst
ice) will at all times welcome
The permissible dimensional deviations of pattern exipment to DIN 1511 only apply
to the ‘as supplied’ condition,
The request that symbols be
roduced for dimensioning the thtee types of pattern
draft could not be given effect. Since all three drafts may occur on the same drawing,
the question of the introduction of symbols has been passed on to the Normenausschuss
Zeichnungswesen (Standards Committee Drawing Practice) which is the competent
bbody for this purpose in the DIN,
