Abstract

See full text

A twin roll caster and a method for operating comprising two casting rolls that delimit a casting gap on its longitudinal sides; two side plates that delimit the casting gap on its narrow sides; and at least one axial actuator associated with one of the side plates and impacting the respective side plate on its rear turned away from the front sides of the casting rolls with a force axially aligned toward the casting gap pressing the side plate against the front sides of the casting rolls. An axial actuator acts on the rear side of the side plate by means of a joint provided to adjust an angular offset between the normal level relative to the effective direction of the force applied by the axial actuator to the side plate and the normal level relative to the axes of rotation of the casting rolls.
