Abstract
A method of guiding and transferring a rapidly quenched metallic tape includes steps of peeling the rapidly quenched metallic tape produced by solidification through rapid quenching on a circumferential surface of a single cooling roll rotating at a high speed, introducing the metallic tape into a cylindrical transfer guide to a pinch roll unit arranged at a terminal end of the transfer guide to catch the metallic tape by the pinch roll unit, and moving the pinch roll unit to a winder for the metal tape. The metallic tape is fed in the transfer guide substantially without being in contact with the transfer guide. An apparatus for guiding and transferring a rapidly quenched metallic tape includes a cylindrical transfer guide arranged on a normal line of a single cooling roll for introducing and guiding the metallic tape, a pinch roll unit arranged at a terminal end of the transfer guide for catching the metallic tape, and a transfer trolley for transferring the pinch roll unit to a winder for the metallic tape.
