Abstract: A continuous casting contrivance comprises a mold (7a) capable of being installed at the floor of the crucible (1) in an opening (3) that may, if necessary, display a casting punch (25a). Further provided for the mold is a cooling arrangement. As to whether the production and operating costs of a continuous casting contrivance of this type are to be significantly reduced as compared to the state of the art and the quality of the casting improved, and to be able to again prepare a mold for a renewed continuous casting, is provided for on the one hand by splitting the continuous casting mold (7a) into, if necessary, a supply part (4) accommodating the casting punch (25a) and, transversally to the direction of continuous casting, a cooling mold (7) capable of being regulated in its temperature, whereby the supply part (4) is disposed in the crucible floor (1) and/or in an insert (1a) provided there.
