Abstract
A tooling for producing a metal product by feed casting, including a mold having a preheater, an ingot mold (), a movable bottom that moves in a main direction X and a transition ring interposed between the preheater and the ingot mold (). The tooling has a clamping ring () transmitting a clamping force (F) to the transition ring () oriented towards the ingot mold (), a holding mechanism that positively locks the clamping ring (), and an axial relief mechanism configured to vary between an inactive state in which the holding mechanism exerts a holding force (F) on the clamping ring () such that the clamping ring () exerts the clamping force (F) on the transition ring () and an active state in which the axial relief mechanism resists the action applied by the holding mechanism on the clamping ring in the inactive state.
