Abstract: A containment system for laterally containing a liquid metal material or liquid metal alloy at an open side end of a passage defined between two casting members, said system comprising a pneumatic device ending with a hollow end element adapted to be arranged close to said open side end of the passage, wherein said hollow end element defines a chamber therein, wherein said pneumatic device is adapted to feed a compressed aeriform substance into said chamber, and wherein said hollow end element is provided with at least one blowing face for blowing said compressed aeriform substance from the chamber towards a side containment zone for said liquid metal.

Abstract: Method to obtain a continuous casting apparatus to cast, through the casting cavity of a crystallizer of a mold, a cast product with a polygonal cross section.

Abstract: An electromagnetic device for laterally containing a liquid metal, having a first electrical conductivity, at one open side end of a passage defined between two counter-rotating casting rolls, at least the surfaces of which are made of a ferromagnetic material, said device comprising a magnetic yoke made of a further ferromagnetic material having a second electrical conductivity either lower than or equal to said first electrical conductivity of the liquid metal and ending with two mutually proximal wedge-shaped ends, said wedge-shaped ends having respective inner surfaces, facing each other and defining a gap, and respective outer surfaces, arranged one on one side and the other on the other side with respect to a plane lying in said gap and shaped so as to be able to insert both said wedge-shaped ends at least partially between the two casting rolls; at least one coil wound on at least one stretch of the magnetic yoke and adapted to be supplied by electric current; at least one plate, made of a material
