Abstract

In order to improve disassembly of the oscillation mechanism at a continuous casting installation, the continuous casting mold and the first support guide zone, and at the same time to obtain a support guide arrangement free of dislocation at the transition location, an upper section of the machine base frame and a support frame for the mold and the first zone of the support guide arrangement are at least partially overlappingly arranged. The underside of the frames are supported upon a foundation which is common to such frames. The upper section or portion of the machine base frame at its upper end region and the support frame for the continuous casting mold are movably supported in the direction of travel of the continuously cast strand at a common support location.
