Abstract
An integrated plant for the production of elongated metal product of relatively small cross section, such as bars and rods, is described in which the product is initially cast in a pair of continuous casters and conducted along parallel conveyor lines toward a rolling mill which is in-line with one of the conveyor lines. A tunnel furnace operative to heat the product to rolling temperatures contains transfer mechanism for transferring product on the out-of-line conveyor to the in-line conveyor whereby the benefits of substantially continuous rolling of the product is achieved. A method for operating the plant is also described.
