An apparatus for manufacturing solder balls including a tundish, a vibrator, a cooling liquid tank an inactive atmospheric chamber, a molten metal receiving tray, a ball collecting barrel, and a cooling liquid reservoir. The tundish has orifices at its bottom. The vibrator is immersed in the molten metal of the tundish and generates vibrations. The cooling liquid tank is situated under the tundish and is provided with a cooling liquid heater at its upper and middle outer surface, a cooling liquid cooler at its lower outer surface, and a cooling liquid discharge conduit at its top. The inactive atmospheric chamber is interposed between the bottom of the tundish and the op surface of the cooling liquid. The molten metal receiving tray is seated on a portion of the inactive atmospheric chamber and is horizontally movable. The ball collecting barrel is positioned under the cooling liquid tank and is provided with a cut-off valve at its top, a ball removing valve at its bottom, and a cooling liquid supply conduit at it s upper portion. The cooling liquid reservoir is situated under the ball collecting barrel, is provided with a ball collecting sieve at its inlet and is connected with the cooling liquid discharge conduit and the cooling liquid supply conduit.
