摘要:
A process and apparatus for controlling the position of a cast ingot is provided so that unwanted distortions of the casting are substantially avoided. The instant process and apparatus also permit substantially uniform heat transfer about the casting periphery. A control system for maintaining the casting within a mold so that the casting outer periphery is substantially uniformly spaced from the mold inner wall comprises a casting supporting mechanism adjacent the mold exit and non-thermal position detectors.
摘要:
A process for casting a material comprising a casting system for said material including a coolant application device. The coolant application device comprises a fluidized bed cooling system. The casting system may be a continuous or semi-continuous one and preferably employs an electromagnetic mold.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a system for aligning a plurality of rollers in a metal or metal alloy foil production line. The alignment system comprises a reference frame having a longitudinal dimension parallel to the direction of foil travel through the production line and an optical alignment system movably mounted to the frame. The optical alignment system comprises a laser beam generator, beam splitters and a mirror for generating an orthogonal reference frame for aligning each foil contacting roller in the production line.
摘要:
An apparatus and process for casting a material comprising a coolant application device comprising a fluidized bed coolant system. The casting is carried out utilizing a casting mold which defines a casting zone. A soundwave generating system is provided for enhancing the flow of the fluidized bed into the vicinity of the casting zone.
