Apparatus for gravity flow and feeding of alloy in a casting operation has a supply vessel for holding a supply of alloy, a furnace in which the vessel is contained and in which the vessel is heatable to maintain the supply of alloy at suitable casting temperature, and a die mounted laterally outwardly from the vessel in relation to the furnace. A conduit provides communication between the vessel and the die. The apparatus further includes means for reversibly tilting an assembly including the furnace, the vessel and the die about a substantially horizontal axis to enable or prevent the flow of the alloy from the vessel to a die cavity defined by the die.
