ARRANGEMENT FOR THE HOT-ROLLING OF METAL STRIP OR PLATELIKE ROLLING STOCK

摘要

A hot-rolling plant comprises forward and rear reversible coilers, a reversible finishing stand disposed between the coilers, and crop shears including upper and lower cutter cylinders. To permit trimming of the stock to be rolled between finishing passes, the crop shears are disposed between the finishing stand and the rear reversible coiler, and a backing roller for supporting the stock is rotatably mounted on the lower cutter cylinder on an axis which is parallel to the axis of rotation of the lower cutter cylinder.
