PROCESS FOR CASTING THIN CONTINUOUS CASTINGS AND STRIP-CASTING PLANT FOR PRODUCING THIN CONTINUOUS CASTINGS

摘要

The invention relates to a process and to a strip-casting plant for producing thin continuous casting, in particular of steel, comprising an endless belt on to which is directed liquid metal via a feeding means which comprises a casting duct and is in communication with a metallurgical vessel. In this regard, the feeding means (11) is designed to be a resistance duct part (14), and a second casting duct part (15), the month (16) of which faces the endless belt (31) and has dimensions which correspond to the finished product (S) in its cross-sectional area, and the feeding means (11) is connected to a receptacle (12) which is designed to be fed with liquid melt (M) from a metallurgical vessel (21), and measuring devices (71) are provided for detecting the level (P) of the liquid melt (M) in the receptacle (12) and/or the thickness (ds) of the continuous casting disposed on the endless belt (31). In addition, the measured values are in communication with an actuator (73) via a measuring and controlling device (72) which is connected to a device (24, 25) for adjusting the outflow rate from the metallurgical vessel (21).
