Induction heating in hot rolling mills

Integrated minimill concepts for the production of hot strip have been in successful operation for many years. All the plant components, from the vertical casting machine through the roller hearth furnace right up to the compact rolling mill are installed in line to enable a continuous process from the liquid steel phase right through to the coiled hot strip. Increasing demands on productivity and the quality of the rolled goods can be met today by integrating flexible induction units into these lines.
