Abstract:
A casting/rolling installation for producing hot-rolled strip. In order to save investment costs for the roll changing device in a corresponding installation with two parallel casting lines, without a roll change taking place in the process in a less operationally reliable and more complicated manner, the roll changing device is configured in the form of a rotary table and arranged in the intermediate space between the two casting lines.
