Abstract: Steel strips and methods for producing steel strips are provided. In an illustrated embodiment, a method for producing steel strips includes continuously casting molten steel into a strip, said molten steel comprising a concentration of residuals of 2.0 wt% or less is selected with regard to the microstructure of the finished strip to provide a desired yield strength; and cooling the strip to transform the strip from austenite to ferrite in the temperature range of 850 DEG C to 400 DEG C. Cast steel with improved yield strength properties is produced by such method.

Abstract: A method of controlling a continuous steel strip casting process based on customer-specified requirements includes a general purpose computer in which product specifications of steel product ordered by a customer is entered. The computer is configured to automatically map the product specifications to process parameters/set points for controlling the continuous steel strip casting process in a manner to produce the customer ordered product, and in one embodiment produces a process change report detailing such process parameters/set points for operator use in physically implementing such process parameters/set points in the strip casting process. Alternatively, the computer may provide the process parameters/set points directly to the strip casting process for automatic control thereof in producing the customer ordered steel product. The process of the present invention is capable of substantially reducing the time between a customer request for a steel product and delivery thereof over that of conventional steel manufacturing processes.

Abstract: A plain carbon steel strip (12) is continuously cast in a twin roll caster (11) and passes to a run out table 17 on which it is subjected to accelerated cooling by means of cooling headers (18) whereby it is cooled to transform the strip from austenite to ferrite at a temperature range between 850 °C and 400 °C at a cooling rate of not less than 90 °C/sec, such that the strip has a yield strength of greater than 450MPa. The strip after casting and before cooling is passed through a hot rolling mill to reduce the thickness of strip by at least 15% and up to 50%.

Abstract: Steel strips and methods for producing steel strips are provided. In an illustrated embodiment, a method includes continuously casting molten low carbon steel into a strip of no more than 5 mm thickness having austenite grains that are coarse grains of 100-300 micron width; and providing desired yield strength in the cast strip by cooling the strip to transform the austenite grains to ferrite in a temperature range between 850 DEG C and 400 DEG C at a selected cooling rate of at least 0.01 DEG C/sec to produce a microstructure that provides a strip having a yield strength of at least 200 MPa. The low carbon steel produced desired microstructure.

Abstract: A cast carbon steel strip (12) is prepared by continuously casting in a twin roll caster (11) and cooling to transform the strip from austenite to ferrite at a temperature range between 400°C and 850°C at cooling the strip to transform the austenite to ferrite within a temperature range between 400°C and 850°C at a cooling rate of greater than 100°C/sec without inhibiting the cooling rate to form cast strip that is less than about 1% austenite and has microstructure more than 10% of which exhibits a packet size greater than 300 µm, is either (i) a mixture of polygonal ferrite and low temperature transformation products or (ii) predominantly low temperature transformation products, and has a yield strength of at least 450 MPa. The cast strip before cooling is passed through a hot rolling mill 15 to reduce the thickness of strip by at least 15% and up to 50%.
