The invention relates to a process for the production of castings in a levitation melting process, wherein a batch of an electrically conductive material is brought into the area of influence of at least one alternating electromagnetic field by means of a starting material having a plurality of pre-separated batches separated by regions of reduced cross section, so that the Charge is kept in a limbo. The areas are designed so that a separation of the pre-separated batches takes place only when melting in an alternating electromagnetic field. The melt is then poured into molds.
