The role of the crystallizer copper plate…

The crystallizer is the core component of continuous casting. The copper plate of the crystallizer is an important heat-conducting component in continuous casting from liquid steel to solidification into a solid shell. Its quality directly affects the surface quality of the cast slab and the continuous casting process. Casting machine pulling speed and other indicators. The molten steel flows through the copper plate of the crystallizer, crystallizes into a billet under the action of external cooling water, and is pulled out of the crystallizer by the dummy rod. Frequent billet drawing causes serious wear and tear on the copper plate of the crystallizer, and frequent replacement not only reduces production efficiency, but also consumes a large amount of crystallizers. In order to improve the service life of the crystallizer copper plate, relevant domestic and foreign units and experts have conducted long-term and in-depth research on copper plate materials and coatings, and have achieved great results. At present, thermal analysis technology has begun to be applied at home and abroad to research on the optimization of crystallizer design and coating selection. The application of thermal analysis technology on crystallizer copper plates has greatly improved the life of the crystallizer copper plates. That's all I know. Thank you!
