Abstract
A continuous casting installation with a heatable, pressure-regulated multiple-chamber furnace and a furnace-dependent mold for casting a molten metal. The pressure ratios in the pressure chamber of the furnace are regulated in accordance with its degree of fullness by a pressure generating device in order to maintain a constant metallostatic pressure in the mold chamber of the furnace. In order to improve the reliability with which the filling state is determined, the mold is fitted statically to a furnace-independent supporting frame and the multiple-chamber furnace is dynamically supported on a weighing device. Additionally, the mold is connected with the multiple-chamber furnace in a frictional engagement via a compressible seal.
