Abstract

A casting device for metallic product includes a main unit 1 having a pressurizing chamber 14 and casting cavities 16 for accommodating a metallic material M, a pressurizing unit 3 for pressurizing the metallic material M contained in the pressurizing chamber 14 to cause the metallic material to flow into the casting cavities 16 and a blade unit 4 provided between the pressurizing chamber 14 and the casting cavities 16. The blade unit 4 includes a scraper edge 41 for scraping the outer layer of the metallic material M pressurized by the pressurizing unit 3. After the end of the scraping operation for the outer layer M2 of the metallic material M, the blade unit 4 is moved by the first driving unit 51 from the scraping position A1 to a disengaging position. Thereby, the metallic material can be readily separated from the blade unit.
