PURPOSE:To improv eproductivity and quality, by drawing a thin plate while pressing one side thereof along a drum and the other side along a guide block by the pressing force of the quide block provided in the lower part of the drum. CONSTITUTION:The molten metal 2 charged continuously into the spacing between drums 1, 1 solidifies on the drum surfaces to be a solidified shell 3 which is then drawn downward and is formed a thin plate upon completion of the solidification. The one side of the thin plate is pressed along the drum and the other side is pressed by a guide block 4 during this process; therefore, the width of the plate is restrained and the ingot is drawn by the peripheral speed of the drum 1. Since the deformation in the thickness direction is restrained, bulging is obviated. The cooling power possessed by both of the drums 1, 1 and the block 4 contributes to the progression of solidification and cooling. |
