Equipment for manufacturing stainless steel strip formed by arranging in order a double-drum continuous casting machine, a bridal roll- or pinch roll-containing atmosphere control cover, a hot rolling mill, a heat treatment furnace formed by a direct fire burner connected in the lengthwise direction of the furnace to header pipes arranged in parallel in the widthwise direction of the furnace, a cooler, and a take-up unit.
摘要:
A twin-drum continuous casting method for continuously supplying molten steel between a pair of cooling drums disposed in parallel to each other for solidification thereat and being cast into a thin cast piece wherein at the closest position of the cooling drums, a concave crown amount is imparted to the cooling drums in which the solid phase rate at the thickness-wise centre of a thin cast piece in a range where the distance from an end of the thin cast piece to a central portion is within 50 mm indicates a value equal to or more than a solid phase rate at the fluidity limit or the cooling efficiency in the vicinity of the end portion of the cooling drum is improved.
摘要:
In continuous casting of a carbon steel thin strip slab, the present invention makes the scales generated in the slab thin and produces a composition suitable for machining such as cold rolling and pressing. The construction of an apparatus for restricting the occurrence of the scales is simplified, a consumption quantity of an inert gas is saved, and the slab is produced efficiently. A carbon steel containing not greater than 0.5 % of C is cooled and solidified by a pair of cooling drums to produce a thin strip slab having a thickness of not greater than 10 mm, the slab so produced is introduced into a sealed chamber and is held in an argon atmosphere having an oxygen gas concentration of not higher than 5 % within a temperature range of up to at least 1200 DEG C, the temperature range is then cooled to 750 to 800 DEG C at a cooling rate of at least 10 DEG C/sec, and the slab is taken up by a winding machine into a coil within a temperature range of 500 to 800 DEG C. The atmosphere described above is generated by utilizing a nitrogen gas or a combustion waste gas, the formation of the scales is restricted, and the composition is controlled.
