Abstract

A bow-type continuous casting plant includes a strand bending arrangement arranged below the mould, and a circular-arc guide for the strand following thereupon. The circular-arc guide has oppositely arranged supporting roller ways, and the bending arrangement includes two oppositely arranged bow-structure parts carrying bending and supporting rollers each, and being supported on each other. The distance of the supporting-roller ways of the circular-arc guide is variable in accordance with the strand cross section to be adjusted. One of the bow-structure parts of the bending arrangement is provided with exchangeable roller carriers detachably fastened to it and adapted to different strand cross-sectional formats with their dimensions.
