Abstract
A method of operating an upsetting press for reducing the width of a hot slab cast in a continuous casting plant by laterally pressing the slab between the pressing tools of the upsetting press which are moved toward each other and away from each other by an eccentric lifting member as the slab moves on a roller conveyor through the upsetting press. During the time phase in which the pressing tools have no contact with the slab, the slab is accelerated from a predetermined feeding speed and is subsequently decelerated to this predetermined feeding speed, reducing the upsetting of the slab.
