Continuous Casting Machine
High-Speed Steel Production | KWM Machinery
1. Continuous Casting Machines Introduction
KWM Machinery’s Continuous Casting Machine enables efficient production of billets, blooms, and slabs with 99.6% metal yield, revolutionizing molten steel processing for carbon steel, stainless steel, and specialty alloys. Our systems comply with ISO 14660 dimensional standards and deliver casting speeds up to 5.5m/min for high-volume foundries.
Continuous casting machine is the necessary equipment for Steel & Alloys production in metallurgical industry. It consists of ladle car, tundish, mould and vibration device, dummy bar, water cooler, tension leveler, cutting machine, cooling bed and electric control equipment.
