PURPOSE: A molten steel buffer apparatus for a continuous strip casting process is provided to prevent damage to strip by controlling the length of the transfer route of the strip according to the difference between casting speed and rolling speed. CONSTITUTION: A molten steel buffer apparatus for a continuous strip casting process comprises a heating furnace(100), a plurality of rollers(500), a plurality of cylinders(300), and a control unit. Strip(S) having passed through a casting segment(30) of a continuous strip casting process is moved into or out of the heating furnace. The plurality of rollers are successively installed inside the heating furnace and support the underside of the strip. The plurality of cylinders are installed in the respective rollers and control the heights of the rollers. The control unit controls the extension and contraction of the cylinders. |
