ANNEALING EQUIPMENT IN CONTINUOUS HOT-DIP COATING LINE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an annealing equipment in a continuous hot-dip coating line having an effective layout which is capable of enhancing the production amount while shortening the length of a furnace.;SOLUTION: In the annealing equipment for continuously annealing a steel strip in a continuous hot-dip coating line, a vertical cooling zone 10 comprising a turn roll 9 to turn a steel strip 1 from a heating zone 7 in the upwardly vertical direction, a hearth roll 12 to turn the steel strip 1 traveling in the upwardly vertical direction in the downwardly vertical direction, and a second turn roll 13 to turn the steel strip 1 traveling in the downwardly vertical direction again in the horizontal direction is connected to a second stage of a horizontal furnace 8 in which the heating zones 6 and 7 are arranged horizontally.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
