METHOD FOR CONTINUOUSLY PRODUCING ROLLED METALLIC STRIP OF MELT METAL AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING THE SAME Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC B21B1/46 

FIELD: strip continuous casting and rolling processes.

SUBSTANCE: method comprises steps of rolling in rolling stand cast non-divided metallic strip with thickness less than 20 mm preferably 1 - 12 mm; using apparatuses for controlling strip motion in front of rolling stand. In order to provide stable inlet of metallic strip into rolling stand depending upon strip size, motion of strip before rolling stand is controlled when strip is spaced from said stand by distance equal to 1.0 - 10.0 thickness values of strip, preferably to 1.5 - 5.0 thickness values. It is realized with use of special unit. Method for driving said special unit comprises steps of preliminarily passing strip through it when rolling rolls are drawn apart and fastening strip in coiler.

EFFECT: optimal condition for controlling position of strip before guiding it to rolling stand.
