A molding device includes a mold that forms a casting by cooling received melt, and a stirring unit that applies a magnetic field to the melt in the mold and allows a current to flow in the melt. The mold forms a vertical casting space that includes an inlet into which the melt flows and an outlet from which a product is taken. A transition plate is disposed at the mold space inlet. The melt can flow into the casting space from a hole in the transition plate. The stirring unit includes a magnetic field unit making lines of magnetic force vertically run into the casting space, and a first electrode at the inlet side and a second electrode at the outlet side that can flow current through the melt in the casting space, and generate an electromagnetic force by making the flowing current cross the lines of magnetic force. |
