Patent No. EP3814033 (titled "Apparatus And Method To Control Continuous Casting, Using Electromagnetic Brake") was filed by Danieli & C Officine Meccaniche on Jun 28, 2019. The application was issued on Nov 13, 2024.
Apparatus and method for controlling continuous casting of metals, comprising a mold with an electromagnetic brake to induce recirculation flows, and sensors above the mold entrance to detect the liquid metal surface profile. The control unit processes the sensor data to determine characteristic parameters of the surface profile and commands the electromagnetic brake to achieve predefined recirculation flows, thereby preventing defects and improving cast product quality.
