A device for producing hot-rolled metal strips has a casting machine that produces and transports slabs in a transport line of the casting machine. A rolling mill forms the slabs into corresponding metal strips during transport along a transport line of the rolling mill. A combination transport and temperature-influencing device is arranged between the casting machine and the rolling mill transports the slabs at least along the transport line of the rolling mill, feeds the slabs to the rolling mill and sets the temperature of the slabs to a rolling temperature. A surface device is arranged between the casting machine and the combination transport and temperature-influencing device and processes and/or treats and/or inspects at least one of the surfaces of the slabs. A temperature-influencing device is arranged between the casting machine and the combination transport and temperature-influencing device and modifies the temperature of the slabs.

Device and method for producing hot-rolled metal strips

A hot-rolling stand () for a hot-rolling mill comprises an adjusting device (), which is intended for receiving a pair of work rolls () and for positioning work rolls () of the pair of work rolls () in relation to one another to define a roll gap. In order to create a hot-rolling stand () that can be adapted as flexibly as possible, the adjusting device () is designed to interchangeably accommodate, in the pair of work rolls (), different roll diameter ranges by means of mutually complementary work rolls ().

Hot-rolling stand for a hot-rolling mill and for producing a flat metal product, hot-rolling mill and method for operating a hot-rolling mill

A modular rolling train, particularly a hot rolling train, preferably in conjunction with an upstream casting facility, and a method for operating a modular rolling train are described. The rolling train is standardized and modularized by dividing the rolling train into discrete units n and by modularization of the discrete units. The rolling train can be flexibly adapted to new requirements by exchanging a module.
