METHOD OF CASTING MELT INTO A PLURALITY OF CONTINUOUS CASTING MOULDS

摘要

A B S T R A C TThe invention provides a method of pouring a moltenmetal from an intermediate vessel 3 into a plurality of con-tinuous casting moulds A, B, C through respective controllabledischarge valves 4 and withdrawing all the resultant castings18 from the moulds with common withdrawing means at the samespeed. The method includes opening all the valves to initiatethe pouring process; monitoring the filling level within eachmould in a measuring zone; activating the withdrawing meanson the actual filling levels of all the moulds reaching afirst predetermined threshold value within the measuring zoneor on a first actual filling level reaching a second predeter-mined threshold value within the measuring zone above thefirst predetermined threshold value; and regulating each actualfilling level to move from the first predetermined thresholdvalue to a desired filling level at a predetermined rate.
