DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Application Field) The present invention particularly relates to a continuous casting apparatus for manufacturing hollow materials.
More specifically, the present invention relates to an apparatus for solidifying and casting under the scene, which performs solidification in a mold provided below the scene.

However, in the above casting method, it is necessary to ensure that the starting point of the solidification point (for example, 1550° C. in the case of molten steel) is brought to the cooling mold below the molten metal level.
