RAPIDLY CAST ALLOY STRIP HAVING DISSIMILAR PORTIONS

摘要

A rapidly quenched, cast metallic strip is disclosed comprising a plurality of dis?imilar portions, each portion metallurgically alloy-bonded during casting to adjacent portions along the longitudinal extent of the strip. In the method and apparatus for producing such strip stream of molten metal is delivered onto a casting surface from a first crucible and at least one additional dissimilar stream of molten metal is delivered onto the casting surface such that a peripheral edge of the dissimilar stream contacts a peripheral edge portion of adjacent dissimilar metal to create a metallurgical alloy-bond therebetween during casting.
