German term

Kokillenkippgießmaschine

German to English Tech/Engineering Metallurgy / Casting Foundry
Term in a marketing newsletter of a German foundry. Kokillenguss is "gravity die casting" or "ingot casting" - I just don't now how to include the "tilting" action without sounding clumsy. Eurodicautom, Ernst and Cornelsen were of no help.
Proposed translations (English)

tilt casting

is the correct translation for "kippgießen", I guess you have to phrase around it, tilt cast machinery for the production of gravity dies (ingot dies), for example.
