Abstract
A rolling plant for rolling all types of finished sections from flat blooms or preliminary sections with close to final dimensions, wherein the blooms or preliminary sections arrive from a continuous casting plant and may be stored in reheating furnaces arranged in front of the plant and/or may be maintained at rolling temperature. The rolling plant includes a compact rolling group with two universal stands arranged closely one behind the other and an edging stand arranged between the universal stands. A roughing group is arranged in front of and parallel offset to the compact rolling group, wherein the roughing group is composed of a group of a vertical stand, a horizontal stand and a universal stand arranged closely one behind the other. A roller table each is arranged in front of and following the compact rolling group, wherein the length of each roller table corresponds to the exit length of the finish-rolled stock; arranged following the roughing group is another roller table which extends parallel to the two roller tables over the length of both of these roller tables and past the compact rolling group, wherein transverse conveying units are arranged between the parallel roller tables.
