The invention comprises a pressure casting machine (2) comprising a support (4) and a casting cell (6), wherein the casting cell (6) is attached to the support (4) such that the casting cell (6) can, in use, be rotated, while at least a portion of the support (4) remains stationary, the machine (2) further comprising a releasable retainer to retain the casting cell (6) at a user-desired rotated position. The invention also comprises a method of pressure casting comprising the steps, in this order, of filling a mould (6), with slip for the purpose of producing a casting when the mould (6) is orientated at a first angle, rotating the mould (6) so that it is orientated at a second angle; and draining the mould (6). |
