Reheating furnace & furnace area mechanical equipment

Billet feeding · charging & pushing · walking mechanisms · discharging & rejecting · descaler

The mill can only roll what the furnace delivers.

Before the first pass, every billet must arrive at the right temperature, in the right place, at the right moment.

Hot billet at the open door of a reheating furnace

A billet that leaves the furnace too cold is harder to roll and loads the stands beyond their design; one that leaves too late leaves a gap in the line. The furnace sets the rhythm for everything that follows.

BEISCO designs and manufactures the reheating furnace and the equipment around it as one coordinated system: feeding, charging, pushing, walking mechanisms, discharging, rejecting and descaling, matched to your billet and your mill's rhythm. For new lines, and for furnaces already in service.

How a reheating furnace area works

A billet's walk through the furnace.

1Billet feedingBillets arrive on the charging roller table, one at a time, in the order the mill needs them.
2Charging & pushingThe charging device places each billet in the furnace.
3Walking mechanismWalking beams lift the billets, carry them one step forward and set them down again.
4Discharging & rejectingThe billet leaves at rolling temperature; one that should not go to the mill is taken out of the line.
5DescalerWater at high pressure removes the scale before the first pass.
