Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016180777A1] The invention relates to a method and a device for producing ingots from metal or metal alloy. The method and the device are particularly suitable for producing ingots from nickel, titanium, vanadium, niobium, tantalum, zirconium, hafnium, or alloys thereof and alloys comprising said metals in strand casting methods. The device has an ingot chamber which is suitable for receiving multiple cast ingots and for allowing the ingots to cool in the ingot chamber. For this purpose, the ingots are arranged in the ingot chamber in a horizontally movable manner on ingot holding means.
