Abstract
A die casting apparatus includes: an electromagnetic pump body disposed at a plunger sleeve-side end portion of a molten metal holding furnace; and a connecting pipe connected to the electromagnetic pump body and the plunger sleeve to provide communication between the electromagnetic pump body and a molten metal feed port, the connecting pipe being separable from the electromagnetic pump body. The die casting apparatus further includes a moving mechanism configured to allow the electromagnetic pump body to move between an inclined state where the electromagnetic pump body is inclined with respect to a horizontal plane in the molten metal holding furnace at an angle of approximately 45 degrees and an upright state where the electromagnetic pump body is perpendicular to the horizontal plane in the molten metal holding furnace.
