PURPOSE:To efficiently convey a material to be heated without leaving an empty heating furnace by calculating the empty space for each of the plural furnaces, and determining the supplying order of the materials of the size conforming to the empty space. CONSTITUTION:The materials to be heated are conveyed through the charging table, successively charged into the heating furnaces arranged in parallel, heated, held at that temp., and then extracted. In this method for conveying the materials, the cumulative total Ls of the sum of the lengths of the materials from the extracting end to the charging end in the conveying direction of the furnace in the predetermined extracting order of the materials charged in each heating furnace and the sum of the distances between the materials is compared with the length Lr of the furnace to calculate the difference (Lr-Ls). The sum (W+l) of the lengths W of the materials to be charged in each heating furnace in the conveying direction to the furnace and the distance (l) between the materials is calculated. The conveying order of the materials to the furnaces is determined so that (Lr-Ls)>=(W+l) is fulfilled. |
