Title:
CASTING DEVICE WITH ELECTROMAGNETIC PUMP USED FOR CASTING LIQUEFIED METAL
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS60127056
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A system for casting liquid metals is provided with an electromagnetic pump which includes a pair of primary blocks each having a polyphase winding and being positioned to form a gap through which a movable conductive heat sink passes. A solidifying liquid metal sheet is deposited on the heat sink and the heat sink and sheet are held in compression by forces produced as a result of current flow through the polyphase windings. Shaded-pole interaction between the primary windings, heat sink and solidifying strip produce transverse forces which act to center the strip on the heat sink.
