Roll gap control method for double-roll cast rolling

PendingCN121535148ARelative motionCaster
The invention relates to the technical field of double-roller cast rolling, and provides a roller gap control method. According to the method, in the casting and rolling process, controlled floating of a roll gap is achieved under the condition of constant opening degree by controlling the overall movement of a driving device and a roll system and the relative movement between the driving device and the roll system, and therefore the material updating process in a molten pool is stabilized. Different from a traditional technical scheme, the method can keep the two roller bodies and the side sealing device static relative to the ground in the roller gap floating period, the thickness fluctuation of the green body is effectively avoided, the abrasion rate of the side sealing plate is reduced, and therefore the stability of the cast-rolling process and the quality of the green body are improved.
