Continuous Casting Run Out Table Training

The Continuous Casting Run Out Table Training is a comprehensive one-day course designed to enhance participants' understanding of the continuous casting process, with a particular emphasis on slab casting technology and the critical run out table. This classroom-based training provides an in-depth exploration of the technological aspects of continuous casting for flat products, focusing on the cooling mechanisms for both the products and the equipment involved.

Participants will gain valuable insights into lubrication, hydraulic systems, and system control, i.e., key elements for optimizing the continuous casting process and ensuring efficient and reliable operations.

This intensive course provides participants with a thorough understanding of how process parameters impact strand guide segments, horizontal guides, slab strands, and associated automation systems. The training emphasizes critical aspects of temperature-dependent strand mechanics and examines the factors influencing slab quality, machine protection, and related engineering challenges.

Participants will also gain foundational knowledge in steel chemistry, metallurgy, fluid dynamics, and thermodynamics, all tailored to enhance their grasp of the technological core processes involved in continuous casting. With a focus on slab casting and transport technology, cooling technologies, engineering, machinery, and strand guidance, the course equips attendees with the skills needed to excel in their roles.

Key topics include mold and segment hydraulics, plant lubrication, torch cutting, dummy bar designs, and essential handling, maintenance, and operational aspects.
