Abstract: A method for producing a Cu—Ni—Sn alloy, which achieves both productivity and product quality by reducing internal cracks and dispersing Sn uniformly while shortening the time for cooling an ingot. The method for producing a Cu—Ni—Sn alloy is a continuous casting method or a semi-continuous casting method that includes pouring a molten Cu—Ni—Sn alloy from one end of a mold, both ends of which are open, and continuously drawing out the alloy as an ingot from the other end of the mold while solidifying a part of the alloy, the part being near the mold; performing primary cooling by spraying a liquid mist on the drawn-out ingot; and performing secondary cooling by immersing the ingot having been subjected to the primary cooling in a liquid, thereby making a cast product of the Cu—Ni—Sn alloy.
