20120186773 | Coolant control and wiper system for a continuous casting molten metal mold - A coolant or wiper control system for use in continuous casting mold for controlling and managing the coolants interaction with the castpart during casting. In some aspects of the process, the wiper framework is started sufficiently away from the bottom block so as not to interfere or cause/allow coolant to get into the bottom block; is then rapidly moved back to the emerging castpart during transient heat-up; and then moved away from the mold with the solidified castpart at a controlled rate to a predetermined steady state position or to a second transitory state of the casting. | 07-26-2012 |
20130248137 | METHOD OF AND APPARATUS FOR CASTING METAL SLAB - Embodiments of the invention relate to a method and apparatus for continuously casting a metal slab. The method involves continuously introducing molten metal into an inlet of a casting cavity defined between advancing casting surfaces, cooling the metal in the cavity to form a metal slab, and discharging the slab from the cavity through an outlet. The casting surfaces have an ability to remove heat from the metal but this ability is reduced, thus reducing heat flux, for at least one of the casting surfaces in a region of the cavity spaced from both the inlet and the outlet and extending transversely to the casting direction. This reduced ability to remove heat is relative to such ability of the casting surface in immediately adjacent upstream and downstream regions of the cavity. The apparatus may be a twin belt caster or other form of continuous caster modified to perform the method. | 09-26-2013 |

20160023269 | CASTING EQUIPMENT AND CASTING METHOD USING SAME - A casting equipment for producing a casting with a large cross-section for a very thick steel material includes: a casting part with a passage for a molten steel for casting the molten steel into a casting; a support part arranged separately from the casting part for receiving and supporting the casting in at least one of the sides of the casting; and a solidifying part arranged outside the casting provided with a first quality control device for solidifying the casting. A casting method includes: preparing a molten steel for casting; casting the molten steel in the casting part with the passage opened or closed into a casting; conveying the casting to the solidifying part; and conveying the solidified casting to a subsequent process so as to improve the quality of the casting, thus increasing substantially the yield rate of castings. | 01-28-2016 |
20160052051 | PULLING-UP-TYPE CONTINUOUS CASTING APPARATUS AND PULLING-UP-TYPE CONTINUOUS CASTING METHOD - A pulling-up-type continuous casting apparatus according to an aspect of the present invention includes a holding furnace that holds molten metal, a shape defining member disposed near a molten-metal surface of the molten metal held in the holding furnace, the shape defining member being configured to define a cross-sectional shape of a cast-metal article to be cast as the molten metal passes through the shape defining member, a first nozzle that blows a cooling gas on the cast-metal article, the cast-metal article being formed as the molten metal that has passed through the shape defining member solidifies, and a second nozzle that blows a gas toward the cast-metal article in an obliquely upward direction from below a place on the cast-metal article on which the cooling gas is blown from the first nozzle. | 02-25-2016 |
20160101465 | PULLING-UP-TYPE CONTINUOUS CASTING APPARATUS AND PULLING-UP-TYPE CONTINUOUS CASTING METHOD - A pulling-up-type continuous casting apparatus according to an aspect of the present invention includes a holding furnace that holds molten metal, a shape defining member configured to define a cross-sectional shape of a cast-metal article to be cast by a molten-metal passage section through which the molten metal passes, and a nozzle that blows a cooling gas on the cast-metal article, the cast-metal article being formed as the molten metal that has passed through the molten-metal passage section. The shape defining member includes cooling means for cooling the molten metal on an outlet side of the molten-metal passage section, and temperature-maintaining means for maintaining a temperature of the molten metal on an inlet side of the molten-metal passage section. An end face shape of the molten-metal passage section is curved to conform to a surface shape of the molten metal pulled up from the molten-metal surface. | 04-14-2016 |
