Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0992302A1] Process for continuously controlling the base adjustment and oscillating parameters of a continuous casting mold arranged in an elevating platform (10) comprises operating the platform using four corner, preferably double-acting hydraulic cylinders (2-5) in oscillations, and measuring the oscillating forces acting on the hydraulic cylinders during a casting pause or during the casting operation. An Independent claim is also included for an apparatus for carrying out the process comprising hydraulic cylinders (2-5) each having a piston (9) between two chambers (7, 8) with a hydraulic valve (13) controlling the pressure chambers. A pressure differential calculator (14) determines the effective resulting force of the hydraulic cylinder. A position transmitter (15) is connected to the cylinder.
