PCT No. PCT/DE85/00404 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 17, 1986 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 17, 1986 PCT Filed Oct. 16, 1985 PCT Pub. No. WO86/02298 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 24, 1986.In a device for continuous casting that uses a casting wheel (5) molten material is fed into a recess that runs around the outer periphery of the casting wheel in tangential direction, the recess being open to the outside. During the rotational movement of the casting wheel the material hardens partially in the recess, with the formation of a solid skin. At least in the section up to the formation of the solid skin the recess is closed off by an endless steel strip (6) that passes over guide rollers (7,8,9), the strip (6) being pressed against the casting wheel. The application force for the steel strip is exerted by a chain (11) that is arranged-viewed from the casting wheel-in the pressure area behind the steel strip. This chain is subjected to a corresponding tensile force. To this end, one (10) of the guide rollers (8,9,10) for the chain is installed so as to be movable and subjected to a force that generates the tensile force in the chain.
