CONTINUOUS CASTING PROCESS

CONTINUOUS CASTING PROCESS DESCRIPTION
In this process, molten metal is poured through a graphite mold.
The opposite end of the mold contains a cooling apparatus. The withdrawing rollers draw the solidified rod from the mold at a continuous rate and pass it through additional cooling and finally cross cutting.
The improved mechanical properties of parts produced by continuous casting and its lower cost of operation for larger runs, make this method very economical.
