| 20090114362 | Pouring method, device, and cast in vacuum molding process - A pouring method and a device in a vacuum sealed process to produce a thin-wall cast by using a mold framing for the a vacuum sealed process, and a as-cast product using the pouring method are provided. The pouring method comprises the steps of: sealingly covering the surface of a pattern plate by a shielding member; placing a mold framing on the shielding member and then putting a fill that does not include any binder in the mold framing; sealingly covering an upper surface of the fill and then evacuating an inside of the mold framing to suck the shielding member to the fill to shape the shielding member; removing the pattern plate from the shielding member, thereby forming a mold half that has a molding surface; forming another mold half in a similar way and mating the mold halves to define a molding cavity; pouring molten metal in the molding cavity; and releasing the negative pressure in the mold framing to take out a as-cast product, and further comprises the step of decompressing the molding cavity before pouring molten metal in the mated mold. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20110100582 | GAS PRESSURE CONTROLLED CASTING MOLD - A gas pressure controlled casting mold is disclosed having a hot-top introducing a molten metal of aluminum or aluminum alloy, and a mold body which passes the molten metal of aluminum or aluminum alloy introduced from the hot-top through a molten metal passage portion for cooling and solidification and semi-continuously or continuously casting a billet of aluminum or aluminum alloy. A wall surface of the molten metal passage portion of the mold body is provided with a plurality of lubricating oil blow-out holes for blowing out a lubricating oil. A lubricating oil supply passage is communicatively connected to each lubricating oil blow-out hole and is independently formed at least in a range of a heat affected portion in the mold body. This allows the mold body to be reliably cooled regardless of the difference in the temperature and casting speed conditions and thus can achieve favorable continuous casting. | 05-05-2011 |

| 20130068414 | Speed synchronization system of aluminum alloy slab continuous casting and rolling line and production facility and method of production of aluminum alloy continuously cast and rolled slab using same - The invention relates to a speed synchronization system for an aluminum alloy slab continuously casting and rolling line having a twin-belt casting machine and skin pass rolling machine which controls the belt speed of the twin-belt casting machine and roll speed of the skin pass rolling machine. An actually measured value of a slab speed during advance from a twin-belt casting machine to a skin pass rolling machine is compared with a line speed setting to control roll speed of the skin pass rolling machine by proportional/integrated control and simultaneously control belt speed of the twin-belt casting machine based on the line speed setting and a solidification shrinkage rate of the aluminum alloy to be cast. | 03-21-2013 |

| 20090294089 | TWIN-ROLL CASTING MACHINE - A twin roll caster including a pair of chilled rolls on which molten steel solidifies for delivery of a steel strip from a nip between the rolls, a noncontact type sensor for measuring thickness distribution of the strip widthwise of the strip, a marking mechanism that makes a mark on the strip whenever the chilled rolls make one rotation, a mark detector that senses the marks on the strip, and a nip estimating mechanism. From thickness-distribution information by the sensor and passed-mark information by the mark detector, the nip estimating mechanism calculates variation of the nip between the rolls whenever the rolls make one rotation, based on variation in thickness distribution widthwise of the strip between confirmed passing of the mark and confirmed passing of the next mark, and stores the same as data. | 12-03-2009 |
| 20100084108 | Continuous Casting Mold - A continuous casting mold with two narrow mold sides opposite one another and two longitudinal mold sides opposite one another. At least one of the narrow mold sides is movable toward and away from the other by means of hydraulic cylinders on the opposite narrow mold side. The hydraulic cylinders can be actuated independently from one another and have, in each instance, a cylinder and a piston guided therein. The piston rod of the piston is connected to the narrow mold side that is to be displaced, and a device for acquiring the position of the piston and, therefore, the displacement of the narrow mold side, is associated with at least one of the hydraulic cylinders. To improve the determination of the position of the narrow mold side, a displacement measuring system is arranged parallel to the hydraulic cylinder and constructed such that its measurement path directly corresponds to the displacement of the piston of the hydraulic cylinder. | 04-08-2010 |

| 20090008057 | ROTATIONAL FILL TECHNIQUES FOR INJECTION MOLDING OF SOLDER - A system and method for injection molding conductive bonding material into a plurality of cavities in a non-rectangular mold is disclosed. The method comprises aligning a fill head with a non-rectangular mold. The non-rectangular mold includes a plurality of cavities. The fill head is placed in substantial contact with the non-rectangular mold. Rotational motion is provided to at least one of the non-rectangular mold and the fill head while the fill head is in substantial contact with the non-rectangular mold. Conductive bonding material is forced out of the fill head toward the non-rectangular mold. The conductive bonding material is provided into at least one cavity of the plurality of cavities contemporaneous with the at least one cavity being in proximity to the fill head. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20100000702 | APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING THE HOT TEARING SUSCEPTIBILITY OF METALLIC MELTS - The present invention relates to an apparatus for determining the hot tearing susceptibility of metallic melts, comprising a casting mould, which has a first subvolume and a second subvolume, the second subvolume being formed as a tubular portion with a first end and a second end, the first end being connected to the first subvolume, comprising a measuring element, which extends into the second end of the tubular portion, and comprising a measuring device for recording a force on the measuring element and/or a change in position of the measuring element in the direction of extent of the tubular portion, the measuring device being coupled with the measuring element. The object of allowing an improved quantitative and qualitative determination of hot tearing susceptibility is achieved by the cross-sectional area of the tubular portion being reduced in the direction of the second end in each and every subportion of the tubular portion that may be selected substantially over the entire length. | 01-07-2010 |
