Strip casting plant

Abstract

The invention relates to a strip casting plant with side limits arranged closely adjacent to a carrying belt. The side limits, and preferably the supply device for molten metal, are capable of vibrating and are connected to a device for producing vibrations. The adhesion of solidified material can thus be prevented.

1 . Strip casting plant with a supply device for molten metal, a carrying belt for molten and solidified metal, and side limits closely adjacent to the carrying belt, characterized by the fact 
 that the supply device and/or side limits are capable of vibrating, particularly on the plane of the carrying belt, and are connected to a device for producing vibrations.    
     
     
         2 . Strip casting plant as in    claim 1   , characterized by the fact 
 that the vibration of the supply device and/or side limits occurs substantially vertically to the conveyance device of the strip.    
     
     
         3 . Strip casting plant as in    claim 2   , characterized by the fact 
 that there are side limits adjustable at an angle to each other.    
     
     
         4 . Strip casting plant as in one of the claims  1  through  3 , characterized by the fact 
 that the side limits comprise one or more sections of water-cooled hollow profiles.  
 
     
     
         5 . Strip casting plant as in    claim 1   , characterized by the fact 
 that the vibration of the side limit occurs simultaneously both vertically and parallel to the casting direction.
