Each of the machineshas an opening and closing mechanismfor a mold. A pouring basin, from which molten metal is poured into the mold, is mounted on the casting machine, and moves over the mechanismbetween the peripheral side and the side toward the rotation axis of the turntable. The pouring basinis moved to the peripheral side when molten metal is poured into the mold. It is then moved to the side toward the rotation axis of the turntablewhen work such as taking out of a casting from the mold is carried out.
