The caster tip for continuous casting is generally made of a low-density ceramic material that can withstand the wear and thermal shock associated with liquid aluminum contact, such as a ceramic fiber board formed into the necessary shape. Because of the low density of these materials, they have a low thermal conductivity and can provide […]
By combining a pair of slender feed nozzle components with a non-corrosive cushion, a molten metal feed nozzle for a continuous roll casting machine is made. The feed nozzle members are spaced a sufficient distance apart to allow molten metal to pass through the downstream edge to engage the surface of the continuous casting roll. […]
