ABSTRACT:
An improved apparatus and method for the recycling accumulation of at least one moving continuous band in a continuous molten metal casting machine of the type having continuously advancing mold parts, at least one of which is formed by said band and wherein at a station located in a spaced relationship to said casting machine, the elongated continuous band, belt, or strip is accumulated from the mold end and simultaneously fed out or supplied to the mold beginning. In combination therewith are the use of means to properly tension said band or bands, and means to join the ends thereof to new lengths of band, belt, or strip so as to connect a substantially unlimited number of individual elongated belts to the one in use. The apparatus is configured to permit incorporation into newly designed apparatus or retrofitting for use with a great many of the various continuous metal casting machines of past and present manufacture wherein at least one of the mold surfaces is formed by a band, belt, or strip moving in close contact with the cast metal.
