CONTINUOUS CASTING MACHINE FOR SHEET AND INSTALLATION FOR CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION OF THIN SHEET USING SAID CASTING MACHINE

摘要

PURPOSE:To decrease the rolling energy and edge drop and to reduce an initial cost by providing such a mold shape by which the dogbone is formed to a cast sheet material between the opposed surfaces of moving casting molds. CONSTITUTION:Such a mold shape by which the dogbone 6 is formed to the transverse end of the cast sheet material 2 is recessed between the opposed surfaces of the moving molds 3, 3 of a continuous casting mold and therefore the dogbone 6 is formed to the transverse end of the material 2 cast from the machine 1. The thin sheet material 8 having a specified width is thus produced by horizontal rolling with rolling mills 4 without cross rolling after the casting.
