ABSTRACT:
A twin-belt continuous casting apparatus has a central support assembly (formed of rollers) in alignment with the mold chamber and arranged for backing up a respective casting belt at a plurality of locations; and lateral support assemblies in alignment with a respective side dam of the apparatus for backing up a respective casting belt against the side dams. Each lateral support assembly comprises a plurality of serially-arranged rolling bodies and a guiding arrangement for guiding each rolling body for a rolling advancement in the casting direction through a length portion while contacting a respective casting belt and for returning each rolling body from a downstream end of the length portion to an upstream end thereof while being out of contact with and oriented away from the casting belt. The length portion extends substantially from the inlet of the mold chamber and has a length which is, at the most, one fourth of the length of the mold chamber. During the casting operation there is, at any time, a plurality of rolling bodies in contact with a respective casting belt along the casting direction.
