About Continuous Casting Machine
Continuous Casting Machine
Liquid steel must be cast into shapes so that it can be rolled. This is done by continuous casting machines that mould the liquid steel into different sized shapes called slabs, blooms and billets.
The process is continuous because liquid steel is continuously poured into a 'bottomless' mould at the same rate as a continuous steel casting is extracted.
Some of the advantages of continuous casting compared to individual moulds are:
- More consistent composition and dimension.
- Better surface and internal quality.
- Higher yield.
- Energy savings.
- Less labour intensive.
