Large furnaces melt the iron and stay at temperatures ranging 2,600 to 2,800 degrees Fahrenheit. Computerized systems constantly monitor temperature. As the iron travels down the molding line, the temperature gradually decreases from about 2,600 to 1,200 degrees. As the castings cool, they enter a shakeout process in which the molds are shaken off and the sand is recycled for reuse. When castings get below about 140 degrees, they are cleaned and finished.
The Earthâs Centre is 1000 Degrees Hotter than Previously Thought. Scientists have determined the temperature near the Earthâs centre to be 6000 degrees Celsius, 1000 degrees hotter than in a previous experiment run 20 years ago.he layers of the Earth and their temperatures: crust, upper and lower mantle, outer core and solid iron core.
