Abstract

See full text

The measuring device includes: a detecting section including a coil which detects a change in a value of impedance caused by a change in a mold level; an amplifying section which amplifies an output of the detecting section; a pre-pouring calibration section which determines a reference value of a positive feedback ratio of the amplifying section in environmental conditions before pouring of molten metal; and a mold oscillation signal calibration section which obtains a standard value of difference in an output of the measuring device, the standard value of difference corresponding to a known value of amplitude of mold oscillation when the positive feedback ratio is the reference value, obtains a deviation of measurement based on a difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the output in mold oscillation and the standard value, and corrects the positive feedback ratio within a predetermined range including the reference value.
