Improvement in billets quality from billet caster by roller suspension of secondary cooling zone stiffening

Abstract

Presently, continuous casting machines are widely used in metallurgical industry for production of high quality billets. And the maximum economic and resource-saving effect is achieved by the use of continuously casting small-section billets. Proceeding to the continuous casting has tightened the requirements for product quality and the main objective has become to determine the factors influencing the billet quality. It is necessary to design competently a zone of secondary cooling, for improvement of quality of production. Having changed her design and as a result the loadings operating on a zone of secondary cooling will decrease and the rigidity of a design will increase.
