A pouring apparatus comprises a ladle configured to include a body and a nozzle, and a controller configured to control a tilt angle of the ladle, wherein the body includes a side face portion, an inner surface of the side face portion is formed in a cylindrical shape or in a conical shape, the nozzle includes a nozzle tip for guiding molten metal to the outside and is integrated with the body on a side of the body, in order to guide the molten metal in the body to the nozzle tip and to pour out the molten metal through the nozzle tip, and the controller controls the tilt angle on the basis of a surface area of the molten metal when the ladle is tilted.

Molten metal pouring device and molten metal pouring method

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 () that pours molten metal from a container into molds in a line comprises a bogie () that travels along the molds; a mechanism () for moving the container back and forth that moves the container perpendicularly to the direction that the bogie travels; a mechanism () for tilting the container that tilts the container; a weight detector () that detects the weight of molten metal in the container; a surface-of-melt detector () that detects the level at a pouring cup () of a mold (); and a controller () that controls the angle of the tilt of the container by using the detected level and the detected weight.
