Rolling of metallic products to be heated to form wires, rods and seamless pipes, includes rolling of wires or rods as well as rolling of seamless pipes on a same rolling apparatus, and using a part of aggregates of the same rolling apparatus both for rolling of wires or rods and for rolling of pipes.

Method and apparatus for rolling of heated metallic products

Apparatus for coiling and cooling wire rod comprises a turn-laying head, a coil receiver below the head, movable downwards to maintain a constant distance between the head and the top of the coil, and a cooling tank which is vertically movable. In an upper position the cooling tank contains the coil receiver and coil, and in a lower position the cooling tank is lower than the coil receiver, so that the coil can be conveyed horizontally away from the coil receiver. A coil mandrel is mounted in the cooling tank. Two such devices can be provided side by side with a common drive arranged to raise one cooling tank while lowering the other.
