A temperature maintenance and/or possible heating apparatus for long products, continuously cast and sheared to size by means of shearing means so as to define segments of bloom, said apparatus being disposed between a casting machine having a first casting line and a second casting line, and a rolling line disposed downstream of the casting machine in order to make long rolled metal products. The apparatus comprises a first furnace, a second furnace and a transit tunnel. The first furnace is provided with a first introduction rollerway to introduce the bloom segments, disposed aligned with said first casting line, a removal rollerway, aligned with said rolling line and suitable to render the bloom segments available to said rolling line, and transverse transfer devices to transfer the bloom segments from the first introduction rollerway to the removal rollerway. The second furnace is disposed upstream with respect to said first furnace, provided with a second introduction rollerway to introduce the bloom segments, disposed aligned with said second casting line, an exit rollerway aligned with the removal rollerway and suitable to convey the bloom segments toward said removal rollerway and transverse transfer devices suitable to transfer the bloom segments from the second introduction rollerway toward the exit rollerway. The transit tunnel is located aligned with said first casting line, adjacent and parallel to the longitudinal extension of the second furnace and upstream of said first furnace, conformed to transport the cast bloom segments from said first casting line toward the first introduction rollerway of the first furnace. |
