The problem of a detailed study of the thermomechanical features of radial reduction is associated with the new technological processes of the direct combination of continuous casting and forming of metals and alloys. It is difficult to secure economical efficiency in small-tonnage metallurgical production by means of the employment of traditional technological schemes. If the heat of the casting operation is used for the following hot working, the production of metal products can be made economical for comparatively small volumes of production (20/50 thousand tons year-1). Through-put forging is one of few processes that can be simply combined with both horizontal continuous casting and subsequent rolling.
