Abstract
A method and an apparatus for pouring molten metal from a ladle to a mold. The ladle is titled about an axis of rotation extending through a point proximate the outlet of the ladle, whereby the relative positions of the point where molten metal from the ladle begins to fall and the pouring cup of the mold are kept constant and the molten metal is poured into the mold without varying the path of the streamline between the ladle outlet and the pouring cup of the mold. The vertical sectional contour of the ladle including the outlet is segmental.
