A method of producing a metallic article by feeding consumable electrodes consisting of a suitable metallic material continuously at a predetermined rate of speed into a slag bath formed in a water-cooled metal mould defining a moulding cavity of the same cross-sectional shape as that of the desired metallic article, successively solidifying in said water-cooled metal mould the molten metal formed continuously by the electroslag melting of said consumable electrodes and continuously withdrawing said solidified metal from said mould at a predetermined rate of speed, characterized in that the consumable electrodes preferably have a transverse cross-sectional area larger than that of the desired metallic article are used, and the slag bath and the molten metal in the water-cooled metal mould are heated by non-consumable electrodes. |
