Abstract: A machine for the casting and subsequent stamping of grids for lead storage atteries, particularly ones consisting of low-Sb and Pb-Ca alloys, has a pouring nozzle to receive and pour a predetermined amount of melt into a casting mold arranged vertically beneath it. For removal from the mold, conveyance and machining of the castings without deformation, particularly if soft alloys are used a lifter for the casting is arranged on the casting mold, by means of which lifter the casting can be brought while remaining in its vertical position onto a conveyor device which is developed as a cooling path for hardening of the casting. At the end of the path a deflection unit repositions the casting which has been transported vertically up to this point into a horizontal position and by a feed device is advanced to a stamping machine from where the grid passes onto a conveyor belt.
