ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and process is provided for electromagnetically forming a material into a desired thin strip shape. The apparatus and process includes a first portion containing a sump of said material in molten form. A second portion is located downstream of and communicates with the first portion. The second portion defines a containment zone of 5 mm or less for electromagnetically shaping the molten material into the thin strip shape whereby efficiency is improved through reduction of power consumption.
