Abstract

PURPOSE:To utilize sucking action as feeder head and to improve the yield of material by heating and melting upper part of base material with heating coil while supplying the bar-like base material from lower part and on the other side, dipping a sprue in a mold into molten metal, reducing pressure in the mold and sucking the molten metal. CONSTITUTION:The bar-like base material 10 is continuously supplied into inner part of an induction heating coil 12 from lower part. A pressure-proof vessel 14 has vacuum suction part 16, and in the inner part of the pressure-proof vessel 14, a permeable ceramic shell mold 18 is accomodated. This mold 18 has a pouring part 20 for molten metal and this pouring part 20 projects from the pressure-proof vessel 14 and the sprue 22 at the tip part thereof is dipped into the molten part 24 at upper part of the base material 10. Then, by sucking the molten metal into the mold 18, this is filled up into forming space. At this time, when the molten metal solidifies, by shrinking of the volume, the molten metal works as the feeder head with the sucking action in inner part of the mold and the molten metal is supplied into the mold and shrinkage hole is not developed. Further, as this feeder head is used as the material for the next casting, the yield of the material is improved.
