Abstract

A casting process which is disclosed herein comprises placing a breakable core into a cavity in a mold and pouring a molten metal under a pressure into the cavity by means of a plunger. The casting process is characterized in that the speed of plunger moved is controlled at three stages of first, second and third velocities, the second velocity being set higher than the first velocity and the third velocity being lower than the second velocity.
