The system further includes at least two movable guides (), each including at least two channels, each guide arranged to receive and guide at least one strand () of long product. The guides are movable between a position wherein, in operation, the strands of long product are located in positions either outside of the trajectory of the cutters in a position wherein the strands cannot be cut or wherein the strands are located on the trajectories of the cutters and can be cut by the cutters.

System and method for cutting to length long rolled products coming from different strands of a rolling mill

A drum () for receiving, transporting and discharging long metal products (P), such as bar or the like, preferably coming from a hot rolling mill: the drum includes at least one pair of channels (C-C) extending longitudinally axially and the channels being around the circumference of the drum, the channels simultaneously receive two long products (P,P), respectively one long product in each one of the channels that is part of the pair.
