VERFAHREN ZUR AUTOMATISCHEN STEUERUNG DES BETRIEBSZUSTANDES DER KOKILLE VON METALLSTRANGGUSSANLAGEN

摘要

The conicity of the mould (1) is adjusted according to the casting speed and the temperature of the liquid cast metal and additionally according to the force (4) drawing off the billet from the mould and/or according to the surface temperature of the billet produced at the exit of the mould. In the event of a deviation of the force (4) drawing off the billet from the mould and/or in the event of a deviation of the billet surface temperature prevailing at the exit of the mould, as actual values, from respective desired values, the conicity of the mould is varied in such a way as to restore this desired value. The method can be employed widely in foundries in the continuous casting of metals by the pressing of a molten mass. The structure of the billet is improved as a result of the method. <IMAGE>
