An assembly for treating metal products is presented. The assembly includes a preheat furnace aligned with a reheat furnace. Cold products are initially heated in the preheat furnace and hot products bypass the preheat furnace. A material handling device is provided for a) transferring preheated products from an outlet of the preheat furnace to an inlet of the reheat furnace, and for b) transferring hot products from a point between the furnaces to the inlet of the reheat furnace. The material handling device includes a support extending between the outlet of the preheat furnace and the inlet of the reheat furnace for receiving preheated and hot products; and a displacement device located below the support means for lifting and translating preheated and hot products from the support means to the inlet of the reheating means.

Device for transferring products in plants for metallurgical treating of

Furnace for storing, reheating and holding ferrometallurgical products, in which the products travel along a displacement path on members placed so as to connect, in the tranverse direction, a charging zone and a discharging zone, the reheating and holding zones including, on the one hand, product-supporting members and transporting members placed at a certain distance from the supporting members and being able to perform a rising movement with respect to these and a horizontal displacement movement making the product advance step by step. The storage includes, in addition to the supporting members and transporting members of the type described hereinabove, at least one set of movable supporting members, independent of the hearth of the furnace, able to move with a horizontal alternating translational movement which is performed during the return phase of the transporting members and, upon a complete rectangular cycle of the transporting members, the charge (P) has progressed forwards by a distance equal to the sum of the steps of the displacements of the supporting members and the transporting members.

Furnace for reheating, holding and storing of metallurgical products

A system for handling iron and steel products, such as, in particular, slabs, blooms, billets and similar products, which have intersecting translation movements. These include apparatus for gripping, handling and transporting iron and steel products and adapted for being driven in a translation movement along a running path, and a transfer carriage on which the apparatus for gripping and carrying a product is positioned. The transfer carriage is capable of being displaced along a running path, according to a translation movement perpendicular to the translation movement of the gripping apparatus in order to bring the product to any desired location.
