Objectif
The main objective is to develop a highly productive strip casting process for any steel grade, which can produce hot strip of a quality, which is as good as or better than that of conventional strip produced today, and which has the economical advantages of the near net shape casting process. The process consists of a single belt caster with in-line rolling to allow for the minimum hot reduction required to produce strip from low carbon steel grades. One advantage of this is the high productivity rate achieved when casting strip of 5 to 15 mm in thickness. Another advantage is the possibility of in-line rolling with hot reduction to improve the structure and to eliminate geometrical defects.
