Abstract

A casting machine has a revolving drum, having groove looping around the periphery and being partially covered by a portion of an endless strip to establish therewith a mold cavity for continuous casting. The strip is made of a copper alloy with iron or chromium and/or zirconium added in small amounts to obtain a heat resistant, age hardening alloy. The strip ends have been butt welded by an electron beam and from both sides to obtain an oblique welding seam.
