Principle and technological design of electroslag continuouscasting (ESCC), including bifilar mode, T-shaped mould andmetal level detecting system are detailed. Remelting is carriedout for a Cr18Ni9Ti stainless steel with ESCC. The surfacefinish, chemical composition, macro and microstructures, andinclusions of remelted billets are characterized. ESCC reducescost and increases productivity in comparison to the traditionalESR, while achieves comparably excellent products.
