The present invention relates to a method for producing long metal products such as bars, rods, wire or the like, comprising the steps of receiving, from a continuous casting machine a multiplicity of long intermediate products traveling on respective continuous casting lines (cl1, c12, ..., cln), wherein the long intermediate products have been carried to an exit area (100) of the continuous casting machine; of subsequently introducing the long intermediate products from the exit area (100) of the continuous casting machine into a production plant having known layout parameters, wherein the production plant comprises at least a rolling mill (200) for rolling the long intermediate products; a multiplicity of interconnected production lines (p1, p2) comprised between the exit area (100) of the continuous casting machine and the rolling mill (200), the production lines (p1, p2) defining a multiplicity of production paths or routes (route 1, route 2, route 3); at least a first and a second heating devices (30, 40) having known performances. The method also comprises the steps of associating a mathematical model to the given production plant for dynamically calculating a reference value (GHCI, GHCII, GHCI2), or Global Heating Cost Index, correlated to the multiplicity of heating devices (30, 40); automatically determining for each of the long intermediate products the production path or route (route 1, route 2, route 3) that minimizes the reference value (GHCI, GHCI1, GHCI2), or Global Heating Cost Index; and eventually automatically routing each of the long intermediate products along the determined production path which minimizes the reference value (GHCI, GHCI1, GHCI2), or Global Heating Cost Index. |
