ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for producing dense homogeneous metal cast in long lengths by introducing liquid metal into the lower portion of a casting vessel in the presence of an elongated upwardly-traveling alternating electromagnetic levitation field that provides a levitation ratio of from 75% to 200% of the weight per unit length of the liquid metal. The apparatus provides cooling for solidifying the metal while moving upwardly through the field, and a withdrawal mechanism for removing solidified metal product from the upper portion of the field. The electromagnetic field producing means is designed to establish an alternating electromagnetic field having a frequency at or near a value F=36.rho./D.sup.2 where F is the frequency in kilohertz, .rho. is the resistivity of the liquid metal column in micro-ohm-centimeters and D is the average diameter of the solidified metal rod product in millimeters.
