The main processing factors that control the solidification of castings, and consequently, microstructure and mechanical properties, are: chemical composition, liquid metal treatment, cooling rate, and temperature gradient. In this work, the influence of melt temperature, cleanout cycle, continuous casting direction (horizontal/vertical), and super-cooler size on the tensile strength, elongation percentage, and microstructure of continuous cast copper alloys was investigated. Various experiments were designed to evaluate these parameters systematically. Results demonstrated that each factor has a significant impact on the mechanical properties and microstructure of the alloys. In particular, the melt temperature and casting direction were found to alter tensile strength and elongation considerably. Furthermore, the size of the super-cooler influenced the cooling rates, thereby affecting solidification quality and microstructural characteristics. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the optimization of continuous casting processes for copper alloys, addressing the need for improved material properties in industrial applications.
