Abstract
[Problem] To provide a main mold and core setting device and a main mold and core setting method which enable core setting work, hitherto implemented by a core setting operator using subtle hand sensation, to be completely reproduced by automation. [Solution] The present invention is provided with: a core grasping and moving means for grasping and moving a core; a core movement amount detection means for detecting a movement amount of the core grasping and moving means; a grasped core position and posture detection means for detecting a position, orientation, and inclination of the core grasped by the core grasping and moving means; a main mold position and posture detection means for detecting a position, orientation, and inclination of a main mold; a sensor for detecting a physical quantity applied to the core; and a control means for constantly calculating relationships between relative positions, orientations, and inclinations of the main mold and the core, and from these relationships and the physical quantity applied to the core detected by the sensor, controlling the core grasping and moving means so that the core is caused to set with the main mold.
