Abstract
A continuous casting chill mold, for the continuous casting of metals, particularly of steel, comprises a water-cooled interior section and an outer jacket section which avoids the problems associated with the machining of the cooling channels and at the same time reduces wastage, in that the interior section is produced by chipless (i.e. non-machining) production methods as a thin-walled sleeve having a dense microstructure, the interior section is surrounded by a coiled cooling pipe which, together with the interior section, is positively materially bonded to the outer jacket section consisting of copper applied by casting techniques. Neither in the cooling zone nor in the wall region of the mold cavity is there any risk of cutting into pores or pipes because all chip-removing machining is dispensed with.
Claims21
In a continuous casting chill mold having a wall comprised of an interior section and an outer jacket section, and a liquid cooling means, the improvement comprising:
- an internal wall comprised of a galvanoplastic precipitated constituent metal substantially of nickel, which during use of the mold contacts molten metal to be cast, having a thickness which is a small fraction of the total wall thickness and a dense microstructure produced in a manner which does not include machining;
- said mold having a longtitudinal axis;
- a coiled cooling pipe coiled around in adjacent relation to said internal wall and extending in a direction transverse to the direction of heat flow from said internal wall during use of the mold with the axis of the coil coinciding with said longitudinal axis of the mold;
- and
- an outer jacket section is cast around and bonded to said internal wall and surrounding and bonded to said coiled cooling pipe.
In a continuous casting chill mold having a wall comprised of an interior section and an outer jacket section, and a liquid cooling means, the improvement comprising:
- an internal wall comprised of drawn constituent metal substantially of nickel, which during use of the mold contacts molten metal to be cast, having a thickness which is a small fraction of the total wall thickness and a dense microstructure produced in a manner which does not include machining;
- said mold having a longitudinal axis;
- a cooling pipe coiled around in adjacent relation to said internal wall and extending in a direction transverse to the direction of heat flow from said internal wall during use of the mold with the axis of the coil coinciding with said longitudinal axis of the metal;
- and
- an outer jacket section is cast around and bonded to said internal wall and surrounding and bonded to said coiled cooling pipe.
In a continuous casting chill mold having a wall comprised of an interior section and an outer jacket section, and a liquid cooling means, the improvement comprising:
- an internal wall comprised of a casting substantially of nickel produced with the use of a cavity-defining chill body core, which during use of the mold contacts molten metal to be cast, having a thickness which is a small fraction of the total wall thickness and a dense microstructure produced in a manner which does not include machining;
- said mold having a longitudinal axis;
- a coiled cooling pipe coiled around in adjacent relation to said internal wall and extending in a direction transverse to the direction of heat flow from said internal wall during use of the mold with the axis of the coil coinciding with said longitudinal axis of the mold;
- and
- an outer jacket section is cast around and bonded to said internal wall and surrounding and bonded to said coiled cooling pipe.
