Company Profile

Shinko Metal  Products Company  Established  in 1917  in Moji-Ku  (Japan)  as KOBE Steel Moji plant, for producing  copper alloy  tube. They’ve started  producing  Copper Mold Tubes mass production in 1988.

Copper mold tubes are  most critical  components in continuous casting plants. In addition to conventional requirement for thermal conductivity, strength, heat resistance, there is raising need for molds suited to special requirements of special section shape, special tapers,special plating and so on.

Material Type:

1- DHP: Normal deoxidized copper

2- Silver Bearing : AgCu alloy

3- KM-2: Cr and Zr precipitation

4- KLF 116: Ni25i precipitation and Zn addition

Type of Plating:

1- regular Cr-Plating

2- X-Coating

3- Multi Layer Coat

Original Taper design (eTaper):

Create rigid shell through uniform cooling by minimizing air gap. This taper greatly improve cooling effect, casting speed and is also effective to alleviate rhomboidity, sticking troubles, corner cracks .

Type of Molds:

1-FIN Tube: Developed for preventing heat transfer decreasing by scale adhesion.

2-Dimple Type : New technology developed for reducing rhomboidity
