Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3539689A1] The present disclosure relates to casting equipment and a casting method using same. A casting method includes: preparing a tundish; injecting molten steel to the tundish; installing a vacuum forming member on an upper portion of the tundish to form vacuum in at least a partial area of an upper portion of a melting surface of molten steel accommodated in the tundish; forming a rotational flow by blowing a gas into the molten steel; and forming vacuum in at least a partial area of the upper portion of the melting surface of the molten steel. More particularly, the present disclosure may effectively remove inclusions in the molten steel and restrict reoxidation of the molten steel.
