Abstract
An upsetting press for reducing the width of rolled material, particularly for reducing the width of slabs in hot-rolled wide strip breaking-down trains. The upsetting press includes tool carriers arranged on both sides of the slab and including pressing tools which can be moved in direction of slab reduction by at least one crank drive. The crank drive and a feeding drive are arranged in a crank housing. The crank housing with crank drive and feeding drive as well as the tool carrier are combined into a structural unit. This structural unit can be displaced on a rail arrangement laterally and approximately parallel to the slab movement through a housing post window of the horizontal press stand. The unit is displaceable particularly by a displacement drive.
