One-piece, open-ended, water-cooled continuous casting mould and method of making the same

摘要

A one-piece open-ended water-cooled continuous casting mold and a method of making it to improve the service life of such mold made up from galvanically precipitated layers of which an inner layer consists of a wear-resistant metal such as nickel and an exterior layer is made particularly from copper. After the mold has been manufactured and while still on the core it may be further improved by application of external pressure.
