Abstract
In a continuous casting plant of the wheel and belt type, the grooved casting wheel 11, and the associated belt or band 12, are tilted laterally so that the plane of rotation is inclined. As a result, the cast bar 30 emerges from the casting wheel without any horizontal surface, and passes to bar preparation machinery with this orientation, prior to being rolled.
