Improving Slab Quality Through Control of Cooling Parameters in Continuous Casting Plants

Résumé

Coupling the continuous casting installations with the rolling ones is a modern process that brings considerable economic benefits. During the continuous casting process of steel slabs, necessary technological conditions must be met in order to obtain some semi-finished products with minimum probability of defect appearance, under the conditions of a maximum amount of heat conservation in development without negatively affecting the productivity of the continuous casting machine.
