Abstract
The CASTRIP® facility at Nucor Steel’s plant in Crawfordsville , Indiana, has been in operation since May 2002. Nucor has also commenced construction of its second strip casting plant in Blytheville, Arkansas. The Crawfordsville plant produces low carbon Ultra-Thin Cast Strip (UCS) material in the thickness range of 0.8 to 1.5 mm with a broad range of mechanical properties which are used in applications replacing cold rolled and hot rolled steel sheet. This paper will report on the recent progress made at the Crawfordsville plant, specifically, the effect of dissolved gasses, such as hydrogen and nitrogen, on castability of UCS produced at the CASTRIP® facility.
