Abstract

A method and device for the manufacture of metal bands, particularly of an amorphous metal alloy is provided. The liquid alloy is deposited on a cooling body having a rapidly moving surface, upon which solidification into a metal band occurs. Concurrent with the cooling body surface movement, the cooling body and the melt stream are moved relative to one another at right angles to the direction of the melt stream. This additional movement allows utilization of the entire cooling body surface and not merely that in the plane of the melt stream.
