Abstract: A casting device and casting method are provided for producing components, in particular cylinder heads. The device includes a reusable steel upper core, which can be lifted off from the component to be produced and which has a movable displacing element. The displacement element can be pressed into the component to be produced for dense feeding. In a method for producing a cylinder head by casting, wherein the steel upper core is used as a substitution for a sand cover core, for dense feeding the displacing element is pressed into the melt that forms the cylinder head in the solidified state.

Abstract: A device for die casting a metal component included a die casting mold which has a cavity that forms the component. The cavity is connected to a source for a metal melt by at least one temperature controlled supply channel. The metal melt is introduced into the cavity via at least one casting valve. The supply channel forms an annular channel, in which metal melt can be circulated via a conveying apparatus.

Abstract: A processing system and method for processing a cast raw casting has a spray system for cooling the raw casting. The spray system has at least one nozzle device for at least temporally, locally, or quantitatively variable application of a free-flowing medium to at least one section of the raw casting. The processing system also has a temperature measuring device for measuring the temperature on at least one section of the raw casting and a monitoring device for controlling and adjusting the nozzle device as a function of the measured temperature.
