Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for casting and a casting device for strips or foils made of metallic or metal-oxide melt, according to the preambles of claims 1 and 5.
  • methods and devices for the direct casting of metal melts onto moving cooling body known, usually using a cooling drum or a moving cooling belt.
  • the molten metal is fed to the surface of the cooling drum or the cooling belt via a nozzle-like discharge element.
  • the most important process parameters for the casting process are the speed of movement of the heat sink surface relative to the casting nozzle, the heat dissipation from the strip to the heat sink and, as a further important parameter, the nozzle geometry.
  • the width of the pouring slot in the casting direction has a decisive influence on the casting process.
  • the geometry of the pouring slot has also been given considerable importance in the development to date. Accordingly, efforts to improve the casting process have also focused on the design and dimensioning of the nozzle opening and on the distance between the nozzle opening and the heat sink surface. Practically all known proposals have in common that the metal melt flows by gravity from a casting container into the nozzle and the pouring slit. This gravitational melt inlet was supported in the new strip casting technology at most by a controllable pressure system. For this reason, considerable restrictions had to be observed when dimensioning the nozzle opening and the area between the nozzle opening and the heat sink surface in order to ensure perfect casting and to prevent uncontrolled leakage or freezing of the melt in the pouring slot before the actual casting process began.
  • DE-OS 3 411 466 discloses a method for producing thin metal strip, in which the application angle between the flow direction of the melt emerging from the nozzle and the casting surface between see should be 20 and 80 degrees.
  • a nozzle configuration has been proposed according to DE-OS 3 442 009, in which a plurality of nozzle slots are arranged one behind the other in the casting direction. This should result in thick bands by sequential multiple application of melt at a suitable spacing of the nozzle slots from one another and with a suitable nozzle slot width.
  • melt feed device is also intended to enable the production of larger casting formats, in particular a multiplication of the range that can be produced.
  • the casting process can be controlled very precisely and reliably.
  • the melt intermediate vessel can be arranged above or below the pouring nozzle. This results in optimal conditions at the start of pouring and at the same time a long pouring time can be guaranteed.
  • the new process and the new nozzle device not only thicker strips can be produced.
  • belts can be changed without changing the metal feed system state of the art multiple widths are produced.
  • the nozzle itself is of simple construction and the dimensioning of the pouring slot can be designed more freely compared to the prior art.
  • the melt can be fed to the pouring nozzle by gravity, whereby the static pressure can be kept constant via a level control in the intermediate vessel.
  • the start of pouring can be determined by means of a flow control device in the intermediate vessel. According to one embodiment, it is particularly advantageous if the melt is pressed up into the pouring or intermediate vessel below the pouring nozzle by means of gas pressure from a level of the bath level in the pouring or intermediate vessel. With this solution, the pouring slot remains unaffected until the start of pouring.
  • the flow rate of the melt into the pouring nozzle is linked in particular to the cross section of the strip produced. For strips with a thickness of less than 0.3 mm, it is recommended to set a flow rate of the melt in the tubular nozzle body in front of the area of the pouring slot to a maximum of 2 m / sec, preferably to a maximum of 0.8 m / sec.
  • the cross section of the tubular pouring nozzle can be oval, rectangular, polygonal, etc. An advantageous production and a low flow resistance is ensured if the tubular pouring nozzle has a round cross section.
  • a one-sided feeding of the melt into the pouring nozzle can basically be designed in different ways.
  • a particularly advantageous embodiment is an L-shaped tubular body as a pouring nozzle, which is immersed in a melt bath with one leg and is separated from the melt vessel as a casting system part.
  • a U-shaped tubular body which has a pouring slit in the central transverse leg and, with its two parallel legs, dips into a melt vessel.
  • the slot width can e.g. converge in the direction of flow, etc.
  • the production of strips with a predetermined, amorphous and / or crystalline structure, surface structure, nominal strip thickness, etc., which can be the same or different over the strip width, is considered here.
  • a trouble-free melt flow through the pouring slot on the heat sink is of great importance for the quality of the strip produced.
  • Quality problems arise in particular in the case of tapes of the order of 0.01-0.3 mm thickness, particularly in the case of tapes with a tape width of more than 80 mm.
  • the width of the pouring slot is 20 to 50 times, preferably 20 to 30 times, the nominal thickness of the strip to be cast.
  • the distance between the pouring nozzle and the moving heat sink can be 0.05-0.5 mm, preferably 0.1 mm-0.2 mm.
  • a uniform band quality at the start of casting can be achieved if the casting weight is quickly equal meter is adjustable.
  • the position of the pouring nozzle along the at least partially curved heat sink or the angular position of the heat sink surface with respect to the horizontal can be selected at a first contact point between the melt and the heat sink after the nozzle emerges .
  • other casting parameters such as strip thickness, composition of the melt and the resulting physical properties, such as viscosity, surface tension, etc., are decisive for determining the position of the casting nozzle relative to the angular position of the heat sink surface.
  • the deflection angle of the melt between the outflow direction in the pouring slot and the strip withdrawal direction can also be adjusted.
  • This angle of deflection can e.g. between 30 and 120 degrees, preferably between 60 and 100 degrees. Both the position of the pouring nozzle to the angular position of the heat sink surface and the deflection angle of the melt can be optimally adapted to the casting parameters and the product to be produced.
  • 1 is a side view, partly in section, of a casting device with a nozzle that can be separated from the casting vessel
  • 2 shows a vertical section through a second exemplary embodiment, with a nozzle gap directed from one side onto a casting drum

  • a rotating drum is used as the moving heat sink 6.
  • a pouring nozzle 3 is arranged at a certain distance A from the pouring surface of the heat sink 6.
  • the pouring nozzle 3 has a lateral melt inflow from a pouring container 1, also called an intermediate vessel, which in turn can be fed from a storage container by a pouring jet 8.
  • the pouring nozzle 3 is further provided with a pouring slit 4, which is arranged in its longitudinal extent L axially to the pouring nozzle 3 and essentially transversely to the direction of movement 21 of the surface of the heat sink 6.

  • a width 26 of the pouring slot 4 can, depending on the chosen casting parameters and the casting product, be between 20 and 50 times, preferably between 20 and 30 times, the nominal thickness 27 of a cast strip 28.
  • the spacing gap A between the surface 22 of the pouring nozzle 3 and the moving heat sink 6 can be between 0.05 mm and 0.5 mm, for thin strips preferably between 0.1 mm and 0.2 mm.
  • the pouring slit 4 ends a length 30 in front of a pipe end cover 31.
  • the longitudinal extent of the pouring slit 4 is therefore only a fraction of the length of the tubular pouring nozzle 3.
  • the end cover 31, which is attached opposite the feed side, has a vent hole 11 provided, from which the air can escape in a controlled manner during casting.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 show exemplary embodiments of pouring nozzles 40 and 50, the pouring nozzle 40 tapering in the feed direction of the melt.

  • the melt 33 is in the pouring nozzle 3 until just before entering the pouring slot 4 substantially axially to the tubular pouring nozzle 3 (arrows 35), or to put it another way, transversely to the outflow direction (arrow 36) in the pouring slot 4.
  • the feed direction 35 is at the same time transverse to the strip take-off direction 37.
  • the strip solidifies essentially in the gap A by removing heat from the moving heat sink 6 from one side of the strip.

Abstract

Dans un procédé de coulage de bandes et feuilles, la masse en fusion sortant par la fente de décharge (4) d'un bec de coulée (3) est appliquée sur un corps mobile de refroidissement (6). La masse en fusion est déviée, dans un passage (A) de son sens d'écoulement hors du bec de coulée vers le sens de décharge des bandes. Afin d'améliorer les conditions et la qualité des bandes, de permettre la fabrication de plus grands formats de coulée, en particulier un accroissement de la largeur possible des bandes, et de simplifier le dispositif d'amenée de la masse en fusion au corps de refroidissement, réduisant ainsi son coût, la masse en fusion est amenée dans le bec de coulée (3) jusqu'à immédiatement avant son entrée dans la fente de décharge (3) dans un sens transversal au sens de coulée et au sens de décharge (21) des bandes. Un déflecteur de la masse en fusion vers le sens d'écoulement est agencé à l'intérieur du bec de coulée, à proximité de la fente de décharge.
