ABSTRACT:
Extending downwardly from a guide rod above the rear end of a cutting table that supports a continuously cast metal strand as it travels forward over the table are a torch arm and a feeler arm, the upper ends of which are slidably and rotatably mounted on the rod to permit their lower ends to be swung transversely of the table independently of each other. A cutting torch secured to the torch arm is directed downwardly from it, and the feeler arm extends below the torch for engaging one side of a metal strand on the table. The feeler arm carries means for engaging the torch arm to position the lower end of the torch over the upper edge of the same side of a strand that the feeler arm is engaging. Located forward of the guide rod is a stop for engagement by the leading end of the strand for movement forward with it. There are means for connecting the stop with the arms-supporting means for moving the arms forward with the stop, and cam means for swinging the torch arm across the strand as that arm is moved forward with the strand, whereby to cut the strand and thereby form a billet.
