Claims1
A method of continuous casting using a crane and a ladle bogie which is adapted to travel between a ladle shunting position and a position right above a tundish, comprising the steps of:
- a. disposing the bogie on a stand in the shunting position;
- b. placing a ladle filled with molten steel on a stand right above a tundish by the use of a crane and then teeming steel;
- c. causing the bogie to retreat to the shunting position and thereafter supplying a new ladle filled with molten steel onto the stand right above the tundish, thus exchanging ladles quickly for continuous teeming.
