Abstract: A control system includes a radiation emission apparatus and a radiographic imaging apparatus that generates image data by receiving radiation. A first apparatus of the radiation emission apparatus and the radiographic imaging apparatus includes a first timer that performs time measurement to periodically generate first time measurement information. A second apparatus of the radiation emission apparatus and the radiographic imaging apparatus includes a second timer that performs time measurement to periodically generate second time measurement information. The first apparatus includes an interface that transmits the first time measurement information to the second timer. At least one apparatus includes a hardware processor which adjusts the operation of the first or second timer based on adjustment conditions in a state where the second timer does not acquire the first time measurement information.

Abstract: A pressure pouring furnace includes a molten metal chamber containing molten metal within a furnace body, a receiving siphon and a pouring siphon both communicating with each other at the bottom of the molten metal chamber, a furnace cover sealably covering the top of the molten metal chamber, and a pressuring unit connected to the furnace cover. In such a furnace, a plurality of pouring nozzles are arranged above a pouring chamber on top of the pouring siphon a distance apart from each other, and each of the plurality of pouring nozzles is provided with a stopper enabling it to be opened and closed from above.
