Abstract:
Provided is a solidification apparatus that makes variations in the surface height of a molten metal relatively non-affected by the proceeding speed of a metal sheet to significantly increase the proceeding speed of the metal sheet and to increase the productivity of the metal sheet. The solidification apparatus for producing a metal sheet by solidifying molten metal includes rows of rollers arranged in a proceeding direction of the metal sheet, wherein when the rows of rollers are grouped into a plurality of sections, an average of roller pitches each being a distance between centers of rollers adjacent in the proceeding direction of the metal sheet is smaller in a given section than in a preceding section.
Abstract:
A hot rolling device, according to one embodiment of the present invention, may comprise: a cast part supply portion for producing a cast part; a hot roller, linked to the cast part supply portion, for receiving and hot-rolling the cast part; and a heating unit, arranged between the cast part supply portion and the hot roller, for reheating an outer surface portion in the widthwise direction of the cast part while latent heat is maintained in the center portion of the widthwise direction of the cast part from preheating.
