Provided is a low-pressure casting device whereby maintenance of an intermediate stoke can be facilitated. The present invention provides a low-pressure casting device having: a crucible inside which molten metal is stored; a stoke body which is inserted in the crucible and which supplies molten metal into a cavity of a die; and an intermediate stoke for connecting a sprue of the die and the stoke body; wherein the intermediate stoke has an inner, an intermediate stoke body for retaining the inner in the inside thereof, and a cover for covering the outside of the intermediate stoke body via a heat insulating part, a heater accommodating groove is formed in a side surface of the intermediate stoke body, and a heater is attached to the heater accommodating groove.

Low-pressure casting device

A casting device capable of manufacturing products in a short cycle time; and a casting method using this casting device. The casting device includes: a pressurized furnace; a mold having a cavity formed therein; a stalk; at least a first hot water tap in a cylindrical shape connecting the cavity and an end of the stalk on the downstream side in the molten metal filling direction and guiding the molten metal supplied to the stalk to inside the cavity; and a filter member provided in the first hot water tap. The filter member includes a flange extending along the extension direction of the first hot water tap and abutting an inner wall surface of the first hot water tap. A coolant passage having coolant flowing therethrough is provided in the vicinity of the inner wall surface.
