ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for reliably casting a continuous metal filament include a moving casting surface and an extrusion means for depositing a stream of molten metal onto the casting surface to form the filament. A metallic mesh hugger belt, at least a portion of which is adapted to move at a velocity substantially equal to the velocity of the casting surface, entrains the filament against the casting surface to maintain cooling contact therewith. A force mechanism urges the hugger belt toward the filament and casting surface to provide an entraining, hugger pressure which is sufficient to substantially prevent relative movement of the filament with respect to the casting surface and hugger belt. A regulator mechanism controls the hugger pressure to prevent the imposition of excessive forces within the filament during the cooling thereof.
A strip, provided by the invention, has substantially isotropic ferromagnetic properties within the plane thereof and has columnar crystal grains oriented normal to the plane of the strip. The strip is pickled in an acid solution and annealed to produce a <100> fiber texture wherein the intensity of grains having their <100> crystal direction oriented in a direction normal to the plane of the strip is at least 2 times random.
