ELECTROMAGNETIC BRAKE FOR A MOLD OF A SLAB CONTNUOUS CASTING ASSEMBLY
An electromagnetic brake that variably influences the flow of molten steel in two width regions (B1, B2) of a mold (1) of a slab continuous casting assembly by variably adjusting the magnetic flux density in the two width regions with two magnetic circuits, each magnetic circuit having a first pole (4a), a second pole (4b), and a yoke (2) for magnetically connecting the first and the second pole (4a, 4b). The first and the second poles (4a, 4b) lie substantially opposite each other in the direction of thickness (d) of the mold (1), and the first pole (4a) extends in the direction of the second pole (4b) in the direction of thickness (d) and vice versa. At least one pole (4a, 4b) of either magnetic circuit can be moved relative to the yoke (2) in the direction of thickness (d) of the mold (1).

DETECTING METAL SEPARATION FROM CASTING MOLD
Metal can separate from a casting mold during the casting process. A detection system can monitor the mold and determine if the metal has separated from the mold. The detection system can include a camera, a light source, and a computer system. The camera and light source can be placed on opposite sides of the casting mold and positioned to both point toward the mold. The computer system can detect if any light is visible between the mold and the metal based on data received from the camera. The computer system can then determine the metal has pulled away from the mold based on the detected light.
