Abstract

Herein disclosed is a pressurized slip casting apparatus which includes an upper mold carried vertically movably on a replacer which is made horizontally movably on a horizontal rail; and a lower mold for receiving the upper mold in alignment, when the upper mold descends, to cast a slip under pressure inbetween thereby to prepare a green body of a sanitation fixture or the like. Dehydrating assembly is carried vertically movably on the replacer. A spongy member is attached to the lower end of the dehydrating assembly for absorbing the water from the inside of the lower mold. A push plate is arranged at the side of the lower mold for pushing the spongy member to dehydrate the same.
