Abstract
A method and an installation for producing slabs in a continuous casting plant which includes a strand guiding unit arranged following the casting mold and divided into segments. Each segment is composed of a two-part segment frame whose frame parts are braced together by hydraulic cylinders. Rollers for supporting and conveying the solidifying cast strand are mounted in pairs opposite each other, wherein at least one of these rollers, i.e., the drive roller, is pressed with a defined adjusting force against the cast strand for transmitting the strand conveying forces.
