Abstract
The invention relates to strip casting machines comprised of two parallel casting rollers ( ) whose bearing journals ( ) are supported on a stand ( ). Cooled roll barrels of the casting rollers ( ) and narrow lateral parts ( ) delimit a casting gap ( ). The aim of the invention is to obtain an optimal ratio between the width of the casting machine and the maximally castable strip width, to provide for a simple stand construction both for changing rollers as well as for exchanging narrow lateral parts, and to attain an improved protection against oxidation. To these ends, the invention provides that the cooled roll barrels are constructed as cylindrical casings ( ). The casing ( ) should be supported on a stationary axle, which is fixed on the stand ( ), via the concentric support rings which project inside the casing ( ) on both sides and which are connected to the same.
