Aluminium casting/ingot production
Note that it has to be a countable noun. The "écoulements" here are on a casting table:
le changement d’une table de couléepeut sembler anodin pour les gens de fonderie, mais quand il s’agit d’une table avec autant d’écoulements -16 - permettant une coulée verticalede lingots T, c’est un événement.

cast items
or just "castings" if you prefer since, strictly speaking, this is the eventually solid result of the "coulée"

mould
The phrase "permettant une coulée verticale ..." makes me think this is the moulds rather than the castings.
