PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To carry out a thixo-molding without using pulverized magnesium alloy, by directly supplying an ingot-state magnesium alloy into a magnesium forming machine. SOLUTION: In this magnesium forming machine, a cylinder 15 provided with a supplying hole 22, a spiral-state flight and a screw 16 which rotates in the cylinder 15 and plasticizes the pulverized magnesium alloy and carries the alloy while melting the alloy, are provided. Further, a material supplying cylinder 14 fitted to the supplying hole 22 and where the ingot-state magnesium alloy 21 is inserted, and a push-in device 11, with which the ingot-state magnesium alloy 21 is shaven with the above flight and the end part of the ingot-state magnesium alloy 21 in the material supplying cylinder 14 is pushed against the flight so as to supply the alloy into a groove between the flights while being pulverized.
