Roll Casting of Clad Strip

Article Preview

Abstract:

Roll caster to cast a three layers clad strip was invented and effect of casting conditions on the clad strip was investigated. Two vertical type twin roll casters were set at vertically tandem position to cast three layers clad strip. Roll speed, roll load (separating force), melt temperature and elements of the aluminum alloy were chosen as the experimental conditions to be investigated. The roll load (separating force) and elements of aluminum alloy were important factors to cast sound clad strip. The clad strip could be cast at the speeds up to 40m/min. Interface between the strips were clear and elements of each strip did not diffuse to other strip. The clad strip was not peeled off at the interfaces by continuous bending. Strips were strictly connected at the interfaces.
