Take the Guesswork Out of Continuous Casting

Monitoring. Detection. Analytics—built for the realities of the caster.

Real-time monitoring, mold oscillation measurement, and ladle slag detection systems built specifically for continuous steel casting—helping you improve yield, protect steel cleanliness, and maintain stable casting performance across every heat. In continuous casting, small process variations drive yield, steel cleanliness, and stability. Kiss Technologies provides real-time insight into mold oscillation, slag behavior, and casting performance—so your team can detect issues earlier and make better decisions, heat by heat.

Purpose-Built for Continuous Steel Casting

Continuous casting is a dynamic, time-series process where small variations in oscillation, mechanical performance, and slag behavior directly impact yield, lubrication, and steel cleanliness.

Kiss Technologies systems provide the real-time visibility needed to detect and respond to these changes before they impact production.

Why Continuous Casting Performance Declines

Even well-run casting operations experience hidden instability over time. Oscillation variability, mechanical wear, and slag carryover can gradually reduce process consistency. Without real-time visibility, these issues often appear as:

  • Surface quality defects
  • Reduced yield
  • Heat-to-heat variability
  • Inconsistent lubrication and mold performance
  • Increased breakout risk

When Should You Upgrade Your Continuous Casting Monitoring Systems? 

If you’re experiencing:

  • Inconsistent casting performance between heats
  • Unexplained yield loss or surface condition issues
  • Operator-dependent adjustments
  • Limited visibility into oscillation or slag behavior

Your process is already showing where visibility is breaking down.
