Abstract
A non-turbulent, level pour feeding of molten metal into a continuous-casting mold is provided through inlets formed in heat insulated blocks positioned at opposite shorter sides of the mold for casting large rectangular aluminum ingots. The heights of inlet passages are designed to clean impurities from molten metal. The longer sides of the mold are cooled to a higher level than the shorter sides.
