Draft:Slide gate plate

The sliding nozzle is a device for controlling molten steel during the casting process of the continuous casting machine. It can accurately adjust the water flow from the ladle to the continuous casting tundish, so that the inflow and outflow of molten steel can be balanced, making the continuous casting operation easier to control. It is an indispensable part of smelting. The sliding nozzle is usually composed of a drive device, a mechanical part, and a refractory material part (i.e., upper and lower slides, and a lower nozzle).
