ABSTRACT:
A horizontal continuous casting apparatus comprising a furnace having a bottom wall, side walls and a top wall. A holding block is supported within the furnace and has a vertical opening and a horizontal opening communicating with the vertical opening, the vertical opening extending upwardly. A crucible is mounted within the furnace and has a downwardly extending opening. A vertical adapter provides communication between the opening of the crucible and the vertical opening of the holding block. A side wall of the furnace has a horizontal opening. A horizontal adapter provides communication between the horizontal opening of the holding block and a die associated with the horizontal opening. The die extends externally of the furnace and a cooling device is associated with the die such that molten metal passes downwardly from the crucible through the vertical opening and horizontal opening of the holding block and, in turn, through the die wherein the cooling device functions to progressively solidify the metal as it is removed from the die.
