PLANT AND RELATIVE PROCEDURE FOR THE CONTINUOUS FEEDING OF HEATED METALLIC MATERIAL TO A MELTING FURNACE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF STEEL

摘要

A plant and relative process for continuously feeding heated metallic material to a melting furnace, according to which, on at least one feeding line defined by a conveyor for continuously advancing the material to the furnace, there is one pair of operative modules defined by a first and a second operative feeding and heating module, the first and second operative modules being positioned in succession with respect to each other along the line, the first module being suitable for forming and directly heating a first layer of the material arranged on the line, and the second module being suitable for forming and directly heating a second layer of the material arranged superimposed with respect to the first layer.
