Csp Continuous Casting System With a Roler Hearth Furnace and Pivoting Conveyors

Abstract

The present invention relates to a continuous casting plant ( 1 ) including at least one continuous casting section, optionally, at least one reducing unit, at least one separation device, and one or more devices ( 3 ) for tempering the strip. In order to increase the production of such casting plants and to expand to-be-conveyed goods, it is proposed that at least one rolling line is arranged parallel to the continuous casting plant ( 1 ) with means ( 10, 10 ′) for inwardly transferring different slab formats into the line of the continuous casting plant ( 1 ).

1 . A continuous casting plant ( 1 ), comprising at least one continuous casting section, optionally, at least one reducing unit, at least one separation device, and one or more devices ( 3 ) for tempering the strip, and a downstream rolling train ( 4 ),
 characterized in that   at least one rolling line is arranged parallel to the continuous casting plant ( 1 ) with means ( 10 ,  10 ′) for inwardly transferring different slab formats into the line of the continuous casting plant ( 1 ).   
     
     
         2 . A continuous casting plant according to  claim 1 ,
 characterized in that   for inwardly transferring the slabs in the line of the continuous casting plant, pivoting or parallel conveyors ( 10 ,  10 ′) are provided.   
     
     
         3 . A continuous casting plant according to  claim 1 ,
 characterized in that   the pivoting or parallel conveyors ( 10 ,  10 ′) are formed at least partially as hearth furnaces, in particular, as roller hearth furnaces ( 3 ).   
     
     
         4 . A continuous casting plant according to  claim 1 ,
 characterized in that   the pivoting conveyors ( 10 ,  10 ′) have a transporting device running in a direction opposite the transportation direction of the casting plant.   
     
     
         5 . A continuous casting plant according to  claim 1 ,
 characterized in that   the parallel rolling line ( 8 ) has a hearth furnace and a break-down train ( 9 ) with horizontal and vertical edging stands or a sheet rolling mill stand for reducing the thickness of the inwardly transferring slabs to an entry thickness necessary for a CSP-plant, e.g., between 40 and 70 mm.   
     
     
         6 . A continuous casting plant according to  claim 1 ,
 characterized in that   a tandem-stand train ( 5 ) as finishing train ( 4 ) with a cooling line ( 6 ), reel/s ( 7 ) and, optionally, further plant components such as shears and the like are arranged downstream of the continuous casting plant according to  claims 1  through  5 .
