Abstract
A strand casting installation in which a conicity of a die is set during a casting procedure by measuring temperature values along a centric measuring path running in a casting direction along an adjustably disposed die wall; measuring temperature values along a peripheral measuring path running in a casting direction along the adjustably disposed die wall, wherein the peripheral measuring path runs between the centric measuring path and a lateral periphery of the die wall, and a spacing of the peripheral measuring path from the lateral periphery of the die wall is smaller than a spacing of the centric measuring path from the other lateral periphery of the die wall; determining a centric temperature distribution curve along the centric measuring path from the temperature values measured along the centric measuring path; determining a peripheral temperature distribution curve along the peripheral measuring path from the temperature values measured along the peripheral measuring path; determining a first area under the centric temperature distribution curve, and a second area under the peripheral temperature distribution curve; determining a difference between the second area and the first area; and setting the conicity of the die taking into account the difference.
