Method and device for careful cooling hot-rolled bars of special or stainless steel.

摘要

A method for the gentle cooling of special and high-grade steel bars produced by hot rolling which are divided into shorter lengths following a mill train (1) and are decelerated by an approach channel (6) arranged ahead of a cooling bed (4) in the stock path provides for the bars to be divided into short lengths, collected into dense piles next to the approach channel and transferred in piles to a cross conveyor (11) operated at a high conveying speed and connected to a discharge roller table (5), and, in the course of being discharged on the discharge roller table (5), are cut into commercial lengths and then stored in insulated holding containers (16). The cross conveyor (11) is arranged next to the approach channel (6) and is designed as a hot bed (13).
