In order to solve problems involved with the curved type continuous caster and high speed casting by controlling the steel flow in the mold, the Electromagnetic Mold Brake Ruler (EMBR) using a static magnetic field was installed and tested at No. 2 continuous casting plant at kwangyang Works, POSCO. The meniscus profile and surface velocity were measured to optimize EMBR operation and slab qualities were inspected under various operating conditions of the equipment, especially using two different types of core. The plant trials showed different results for each core type. High position of core which was a simple linear type located near the Submerged Entry Nozzle (SEN) outlets had a detrimental effect on the surface and internal qualities of slab. But low position of core which has a magnetic insulator at the core center and is located below the SEN reduced the sub-surface defects and non-metallic inclusions in the slab, especially at high throughput casting conditions.
