Resumo

The UniMold® Division of SMS Millcraft has continued to develop and optimize a mold coating process that utilizes a ceramic/metallic coating in conjunction with electroplating technology to create a coating with superior wear resistance properties. A brief update of the various casters using ceramic/metallic mold coatings to extend mold copper liner beyond 300,000 tons will be presented as well as a checklist that all casters can follow in order to increase mold life. A specific focus will be on high speed casters who have had recent success in using ceramic/metallic coatings to protect against meniscus degradation.
