Abstract: On the basis of analyzing the principles, equipment and control needs of directional solidification continuous casting (DSCC) process, the building and fulfilling methods of control model of DSCC procedure by neural network control (NNC) method were proposed and discussed. Combining the experimental researches, firstly the computer is used to simulate the effects of those solidification parameters on destination control variable (S/L interface) and the reactions among those parameters during DSCC procedure; secondly many training samples can be obtained. Moreover, after these samples are input into neural network software (NNs) and trained, the control model can be built.
