ABSTRACT:
A method comprising the steps of casting molten nonferrous metal ingots, skimming scum foaming on the surface of the molten metal in each mold, cooling the molds to release ingots therefrom, stacking the ingots released from the molds to form ingot stacks each comprising a plurality of layers of ingots arranged in vertically stacked relation alternately in two different patterns, weighing the ingot stacks, and tightly binding the weighed ingot stacks with steel bands. An apparatus adapted to carry out the aforementioned method into practice comprising an automatic casting device for automatically casting molten nonferrous metal in molds to produce ingots, a scum skimming device for skimming scum foaming on the surface of molten metal in each mold, mold cooling means to release ingots from the molds by cooling the ingot, an ingot stack forming device adapted to form ingot stacks on a conveyor, a weighing device for weighing the ingot stacks, and a binding device for binding the ingot stacks weighed by the weighing device.
