Abstract (en)

[origin: DE102005030837A1] Working a metal (especially steel) strand hot from casting comprises a soft reduction process in which a reference point (5) within the molten core (2) at which inflow and outflow of melt in the strand travel direction (16) is no longer possible defines a critical shell distance (8) which is used as a reference quantity (6) for controlling the strand guide rolls. An independent claim is also included for for apparatus for the continuous casting of molten metal, especially steel, comprising a tundish, a mold, a secondary cooling station, a stand of guide rolls, and a soft reduction zone (4) that comprises several lengths of support roll segments or lengths of individual guide rolls and is of variable length, where individual rolls of the support roll segments can be adjusted and driven in succession in stages according to the intended thickness reduction.
