In a twin-drum continuous casting machine that pours molten metal between two drums and continuously casts a thin plate, when the plate thickness is 2 to 5 mm, the time for the molten metal to solidify upon contact with the drums, the so-called solidification time, is usually CtS ~ It is 2 seconds. Strict control of this short-time solidification is essential in order to maintain good properties of the obtained slab. For this purpose, it is important to strictly control the molten metal level needle between the drums, but since the conventional method was carried out by supplying a fixed amount from the tundish, this control was insufficient, resulting in rolling cracks due to oversolidification, Bulging (bulging phenomenon on the surface of the slab) occurred due to non-solidification, and the properties of the slab were not necessarily satisfactory.
