In this study, a novel crawler-type continuous casting (CC) technology was designed to efficiently and cost-effectively produce bulk metallic glass (BMG) slabs. As a crucial process parameter, casting temperature has a significant impact on the operation of CC devices and the quality of slabs. CC experiments of the Zr41.2Ti13.8Cu12.5Ni10.0Be22.5 (Vit1) BMG slab were carried out at the casting temperatures of 1073 K, 1123 K, and 1173 K, and the microstructure and properties of slab samples were analyzed and studied. The experimental results indicate that the BMG slabs can be prepared by CC at 1173 K and 1123 K. When the temperature is reduced to 1073 K, the Be12Ti crystal phase precipitates inside the CC slab, which has a certain impact on the thermal stability and compressive performance of the slab. The control of casting temperature does not affect the glass-forming ability (GFA) of the slab in the CC process.
