ABSTRACT:
In a continuous casting mold for casting slabs of metal, the mold is cooled by sprays of coolant directed against the outside of the mold. The mold (11) is divided into four zones (zones 1, 2, 3 and 4) and the rates of heat extraction in the different zones are varied so as to obtain a substantially uniform rate of cooling and solidification of the metal being cast, thereby reducing or eliminating the incidence of face cracking in the cast slab.
