MUMBAI, India, June 30 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617064243 A) filed by Primetals Technologies Austria Gmbh on May 21, 2026, for Device For Comparing The Temperature Profile Of The Strand Of A Continuous Casting System.
Inventors include Watzinger, Josef; Hammerl, Joachim; and Watzinger, Irene.
The application for the patent was published on June 26, 2026, under issue no. 26/2026.
Abstract: The invention relates, on the one hand, to a strand guide unit for a continuous casting system for producing a strand, comprising strand guide rollers for guiding a strand on both sides and, on the other hand, to a continuous casting system. One object of the invention is to create a strand guide unit that produces a temperature distribution on the surface of the strand which is as uniform as possible during the continuous casting process. This influences the temperature distribution in the strand and improves the quality of the end product. The object is achieved in that the strand guide rollers of the strand guide unit each have at least three centre bearing points, wherein the at least two centre rolls each have the same length in the width direction. The two edge rolls of each strand guide roller have a difference in length to each other in the width direction that corresponds to half the length of a centre roll including half the width of a centre bearing point. Viewed in the casting direction, directly adjacent strand guide rollers are each mirrored around a plane that runs along half the total length of the strand guide rollers in the casting direction.
