ON THE ISSUE OF OPTIMIZATION OF TECHNOLOGICAL PARAMETERS FOR THE PROCESS OF CONTINUOUS CASTING OF NON-FERROUS METALS

The assortment expansion, requirements increase to work material quality, increase in machine capacity dictate need for development of specialized program complexes for research and optimization of continuous casting processes. In this research work the problem of optimization of technological and constructional parameters of process of continuous and discrete-continuous casting of raw stocks of non-ferrous metals is formulated. The mathematical formalization of task, and also optimality criteria is offered. Research results of influence of hold-up time for work material quality are presented.
