unit interconnection between one or more processing lines for hot products plans of steel type thin slab or strip and a line downstream of the rolling mill to tape or similar

摘要

There is described an interconnecting unit (U) between at least one inlet line (1, 1') of hot flat products from continuous casting and possible roughing, such as thin slabs or strips (10, 10') and a line (2) downstream for carrying the products to a finishing rolling mill or the like, comprising for each inlet line at least two coiling stations (3, 3', ...) for winding said flat product on a mandrel (7). The latter can move between a position within a box-like housing (8) of the associate coiling station (3, ...) and an outer position corresponding to an uncoiling station (4, ...) in a number equal to the number of coiling stations (3, ...) for each inlet line feeding said flat product.
