Performance of Mold Copper Plates

The performance of mold copper plates directly influences both the production efficiency of continuous casting and the quality of the cast strands. A well-designed copper plate enhances cooling efficiency and reduces surface defects on the cast strands, such as cracks and depressions. Stable performance of the copper plates helps maintain consistent molten steel flow within the mold, thereby improving the internal microstructure of the cast strands. The selection of materials, manufacturing, and maintenance of these copper plates are all critical aspects of the continuous casting process.
