- the invention relates to a method for the near-dimensional casting of rectangular strands of metal, in particular steel, and then in-line rolling of the strand, with a material feed container, via the outlet nozzle of which the liquid metal is fed onto the upper run of a conveyor belt, on which it solidifies and then Deformation is passed to a roll stand, and a corresponding device for performing the method.
- DE 43 44 953 C2 discloses a method for casting a metal strip close to its final dimensions onto a belt casting device provided with a melt receptacle and a conveyor belt, in which process instructions and means are listed to influence the spread of the molten metal on the conveyor belt.
- the arrangement of the casting vessel relative to the conveyor belt cannot be changed.

- the invention achieves this aim by the features of method claim 1 and device claim 4.
- the material feed container is set in a predeterminable position with respect to the longitudinal extent of the conveyor belt before the start of the casting, and thus the roughly the point of application of the liquid metal onto the conveyor belt. Furthermore, the conveying speed of the conveyor belt is set depending on the desired rolling thickness and rolling speed of the roll stand. During operation, the position of solidification and the temperature of the rolling stock are now used as a control variable for the current position of the feed point of the liquid material leaving the material supply container on the conveyor belt.
- the average temperature comprises the average of the permissible temperature differences over the strip cross section of the cast strip.
- variable feed point of the melt makes it possible to set a special input temperature profile of the strand in the rolling mill.
- the material feed container has movement elements with which it can be moved horizontally and coaxially to the main axis of the conveyor belt in or against the conveying direction of the strand. Furthermore, the material feed container is connected to an actuator which is connected in terms of control technology to a control device which takes into account the solidification of the strand and the temperature of the rolling stock and with which the position of the material feed container can be set as desired.
- the material feed container is equipped with wheels that run on rails. Furthermore, it is proposed to use sliding elements that correspond to a track.
