The steel flow and refractory arrangement of the intermediate ladle (IL) ‒ open jet (OJ) ‒ continuous casting machine (CCM) mold's installation are regarded in the article. The specifics of the metal flow controlling are mentioned. The structural features of the continuous billet caster which maintain the effective metal flowing through the IL ‒ OJ ‒ CCM mold installation are presented. The improving of the installation design allows the expedient metal flows and provides the billets' quality upgrading.
