Measured Friction vs. Friction Index in Continuous Casting

Measured Friction vs. Friction Index in Continuous Casting

by Tovi Kiss | Jul 21, 2026 | Kiss Technologies

Continuous casting operations run on data. But not all mold friction data represents the same thing. Some systems infer friction from mold vibration and acceleration. Others determine the friction force acting during casting. That difference affects not only how the...
