IMPROVEMENT IN THE RELIABILITY OF MECHANICAL FLUX FEED SYSTEMS FOR CONTINUOUS SLAB-CASTING MACHINE MOLDS

摘要

We discuss the operating principle and design features for an improved mechanical flux feed system to be used in continuous slab-casting machine molds; this system provides increased reliability and operational efficiency, and is easier to maintain. We describe experimental results for the operating parameters of a combined drive for use in such a mechanical flux feed system, as well as validation of the design, kinematic and power consumption parameters for such drives.
