ABSTRACT:
A process and apparatus for reforming an improved strip (12) of material from a starting strip (16) of material. An electromagnetic device (18) maintains a floating molten zone (20) of the material in the starting strip (16) of the material and also forms the floating zone into the improved strip (12). The apparatus is provided with a susceptor device (80) arranged adjacent to the starting strip and operatively associated with the electromagnetic device (18) for initially heating the starting strip to be sufficiently conductive so that the starting strip can be directly heated by the electromagnetic device. Further, a control device (67) provides relative movement between the susceptor device (80) and the electromagnetic device by positioning the susceptor device in and out of the field of the electromagnetic device.
