Abstract

In this paper, a new technique to set up non-sinusoidal oscillations of the mold in continuous casting is presented. The waveform functions of this non-sinusoidal oscillation technique and operational parameters are analyzed and the design to realize the non-sinusoidal oscillation of mold is presented. It is anticipated that this technique will be widely applied as it has many advantages such as lower investment and maintenance cost, simple equipment which is easy to manufacture and maintain.
