Application of Online Width Adjustment Technology for Thin Slab Continuous Casting Crystallizer
The thin slab continuous casting and rolling production line of Rizhao Iron and Steel Company has developed rapidly due to its characteristics of short process,low energy consumption,and high output.This production line mainly produces low-carbon and low silicon steel,weather resistant steel,automotive steel,medium carbon steel,high carbon steel,and other series of 1250~1500 mm cross-sectional specifications,with high precision control of strip steel dimensions.Due to the fixed outlet width of the continuous casting crystallizer and the single width of the steel strip within a single casting,the application of online width adjustment technology of the crystallizer has achieved the production of multiple specifications of width within a single casting,achieving a new breakthrough in thin slab continuous casting and rolling technology.
