Abstract
The apparatus has a hot roughing mill, a cold finish rolling mill arranged downstream of the hot roughing mill as viewed in the direction of flow of the material, and a slitting/annealing equipment arranged downstream of the finish rolling mill as viewed in the direction of flow of the material. The slitting/annealing equipment includes an uncoiler for uncoiling aluminum web which has been finish-rolled and coiled by the finish rolling mill, a multi-slitter adapted for slitting the uncoiled aluminum web into a plurality of aluminum strips, and an electromagnetic induction heating annealer through which the strips are made to pass so as to be annealed by electromagnetic induction heating.
