摘 要：Rapid thick strip casting（RTSC） by Anton Hulek,Inventmetall,is an innovative concept for the production of hot strips with a final as-cast thickness of about 25 mm before rolling.The innovation of the mechanism consists in a vertical mould performing a caterpillar motion.This moving mould has an unconventional parallelogram-shaped cross-section.The conventional rectangular shape is formed in the shaping machine,which is placed straight below the mould.Further elements of the technology are state-of-the-art.For the investigation of this new casting system theoretical calculations were complemented with practical experiments.The investigation focused mainly on two key aspects:the characteristics of the mould and the shaping process.For the practical analysis a static mould with three pairs of elements in laboratory scale was developed and commissioned by the Dept.of Ferrous Metallurgy @ RWTH Aachen University.The shaping experiments were carried out in model scale with two different materials and in variable boundary conditions.The results of these experiments delivered important mechanical as well as thermal informations about the casting system.
