Abstract: A chill casting and foam casting method together with a casting mold that is closable in a pressure-tight manner for producing molded articles. To improve the chill casting method and the foam casting method so that the quality of the products produced is greatly increased and particularly homogeneous material properties are achieved, a gas is supplied to a melt which only partially fills a closed mold cavity until the inside pressure within the mold cavity exceeds the melting point pressure curve such that the melt suddenly solidifies. The solidification process takes place largely independently of location and is thus sudden, so that the instantaneous state of the melt is reflected in the resulting solidified article with virtually no change. This makes it possible to produce molded articles which have a uniform core distribution and meet high quality demands in a reliable and reproducible manner.
