Casting machine for production of casting bars in the shape of billets or blocks

Abstract

A casting machine for producing cast strands ( 2 ) in shape of billets or ingots includes a continuous casting mold ( 1 ) for forming a cast strand ( 2 ) that is deflected by a cast radius (R) from a vertical casting direction in horizontal casting direction ( 13 ), a straightening region (A) having straightening profiled roller pairs ( 4, 5, 6 ) with positive diametrical regions (h, b) or negative diametrical regions (−h, −b) for forming the cast strand with one or several projections (h, b) or recesses (−h, −b); and with at least one pair of straightening profiled rollers ( 4 to 6 ) provided on both sides of a tangent point ( 3 ) of the cast radius (R) and a soft-reduction region (B) adjoining the straightening region and having at least one roller pair ( 7, 8, 9 ) with thickness-reducing smooth rollers.

1 . A casting machine for producing cast strands ( 2 ) in shape of billets or ingots, comprising a continuous casting mold ( 1 ) for forming a cast strand ( 2 ) that is deflected by a cast radius (R) from a vertical casting direction in horizontal casting direction ( 13 ); a straightening region (A) having straightening profiled roller pairs ( 4 ,  5 ,  6 ) with positive diametrical regions (h, b) or negative diametrical regions (−h, −b) for forming the cast strand with one or several projections (h, b) or recesses (−h, −b); and a soft-reduction region (B) adjoining the straightening region and having at least one roller pair ( 7 ,  8 ,  9 ) with thickness-reducing smooth rollers, wherein in the straightening region (A), at least one pair of straightening profiled rollers ( 4  to  6 ) is provided on both sides of a tangent point ( 3 ) of the cast radius (R).
