A mould assembly for producing a casting core for a cooling jacket of an electric motor has an external mould and an internal mould enclosed by the external mould. The external mould forms an outer wall and the internal mould an inner wall of the core moulding cavity fillable with a core material and having a cylindrical shape. The internal mould has two first mould shells and two second mould shells. The two first mould shells and the two second mould shells jointly form the inner wall of the core moulding cavity. The second mould shells are arranged between the first mould shells. A first demoulding mechanism is arranged between the first mould shells and enables movement of the first mould shells toward one another. A second demoulding mechanism is arranged between the second mould shells and enables movement of the second mould shells toward one another.
