Abstract
A casting system for casting molten metal into a continuous solidified strip. A source of molten metal is fed onto a tundish which is interposed between the source of molten metal and a continuous substrate system preferably in the form of a continuous belt. The tundish directs the molten metal onto the moving belt in a direction toward the upstream end thereof so that it is moving in a direction opposed to the direction of the belt. This method of feeding the melt onto the belt results in less turbulance, a dampening of the molten metal and a spreading of the material across the width of the belt.
