Abstract
A method for producing articles in a mold includes bringing a material into a free-flowing state, introducing the material into the mold via a bottom-casting principle, and solidifying being carried out according to a top-casting principle. The material, viewed in a flow direction of the material, is first introduced into a pouring basin of a runner, then flows through the runner, thereafter through a storage space that is located upstream from a cavity and that is arranged underneath the cavity, and from there into the cavity. Thereafter the mold including the sub-parts of the mold is pivoted so that the storage space takes over the function of a feeder or riser.
