Pouring machine and method
Abstract:
A pouring machine is provided to constantly maintain the level of the surface of melt without a leak, or the like, to maintain a necessary and sufficient pouring rate. The pouring machine (1) that pours molten metal from a container into molds in a line comprises a bogie (10) that travels along the molds; a mechanism (20) for moving the container back and forth that moves the container perpendicularly to the direction that the bogie travels; a mechanism (40) for tilting the container that tilts the container; a weight detector (50) that detects the weight of molten metal in the container; a surface-of-melt detector (60) that detects the level at a pouring cup (110) of a mold (100); and a controller (70) that controls the angle of the tilt of the container by using the detected level and the detected weight.
