ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus of making coiled plate, sheet in coiled form or discrete plate. The apparatus is an intermediate thickness slab caster and inline hot strip and plate line. The apparatus includes a continuous strip caster selectively forming a single or a pair of parallel strands of between 3.5 inches (8.9 cm) and 5.5 inches (14 cm) thick, preferably 5 inches (12.7 cm); a shear for cutting each strand into a slab of desired length; a slab table including a slab takeoff operable transverse of the conveyor table; a slab collection and storage area adjacent to the slab conveyor table adapted to receive slab from the slab takeoff; a reheat furnace having an entry inline with both the slab conveyor table and the slab collection and storage area for receiving slabs from either; a feed and run back table at the exit of the reheat furnace; a pair of tandem hot reversing mills for reducing the slab to a coiling thickness in a minimum number of flat passes; a pair of coiler furnaces located on opposite sides of the tandem hot reversing mills; and a finishing line downstream of the pair of coiler furnaces.
