FIELD: metal continuous casting. SUBSTANCE: method for controlling process of continuously casting thin steel belts between cylinders comprises steps of measuring drawing apart effort of cylinders at casting and shifting position of bearing units at least of one cylinder in order to increase or decrease interaxial distance between said cylinders; setting effort limits in range including desired nominal value in order to sustain constant value of said effort; changing position of bearing units more rapidly when effort is out of nominal range than in case when effort is in nominal range. EFFECT: enhanced reliability of casting process, enhanced quality of cast products. 11 cl, 7 dwg
