They provide the higher levels of pouring accuracy required to eliminate quality robbing under-pours and metal wasting over-pours.Casting ladles, also known as hand pouring ladles, and larger bucket-style ladles are used to manually transfer or extract small to large amounts of molten metal, either in a laboratory or aluminium foundry environment.Device used for pouring on automatic molding lines and it is generally unheated.

Ladles over a capacity of 40 tonnes mostly employ slide gate systems as they are mostly used for very big castings requiring a single pouring.
