Upsetting tool for shaping continuously cast slabs in slab presses

摘要

The invention relates to a pressing tool (1) for the deformation of continuously cast slabs in upsetting presses. The pressing tool is equipped with at least one compression surface (5) which is inclined to the transport direction (3) of the slab (2) and with a compression surface (4) which runs parallel to the transport direction (3) of the slab (2) and to its longitudinal side surfaces (7), the upsetting surfaces (4, 5) adjoining one another at an angle of inclination alpha. The upsetting tool becomes a combination upsetting tool in such a way that it has both flat upsetting surfaces (4, 5) and caliber upsetting surfaces (6, 6 ') which are arranged one above the other and with which the slab can alternatively be reduced in width .
