Molten copper is fed from a pour pot into the space between two sloped moving steel bands. The bands are held apart by moving alloyed copper dam blocks on each side creating a mold cavity ranging between 5-15 cm in width and 5-10 cm in thickness. Both separations are adjustable allowing variable product size. Solidification times are similar to those of the Southwire and Properzi machines Strand et al. 1994 . The three types of moving-band casting devices have several features in common. All require lubrication of the bands and mold wheel or dam blocks using silicone oil or acetylene soot Adams and Sinha 1990 . Leftover soot is removed from the bands after each revolution then reapplied. This ensures an even lubricant thickness and a constant heat transfer rate. Fig. .
