Abstract
A multi-line rolling system having a plurality of rolling positions aligned in the direction of rolling. Each rolling position includes a housing or housing structures supporting at least two sets of work rolls which may be selectively coupled to a common power source, thereby permitting the rolling line formed by one roll set to be rendered inoperative while the rolling line of the other roll set continues to roll product received from a feed line. The system further includes an appropriate switching mechanism for directing product from the feed line to either rolling line.
