The invention relates to a hot rolling mill, with at least one flatness measuring roller, pertaining to at least one rolling bed, arranged before and/or after one of the stands, which influences the settings of at least one of the stands. The aim of the invention is to improve the arrangement of the roller bed working rollers and the flatness measuring roller, such that the flatness measuring roller may be, optionally, either brought into operation, or be withdrawn into a protected position, whereby, in this case, the gap in the rolling bed thus formed can be closed. Said aim is achieved, whereby the flatness measuring roller may be stored, away from its working position, behind a screen and that the rolling bed is completed with at least one retractable working roller.
Hot rolling mill with a flatness measuring roll (16, 16′), which is assigned to at least one roller table (20, 20′) positioned before and/or after the stands and which influences settings of at least one of the stands, wherein the flatness measuring roll (16, 16′) is movable from its operating position into a shielded position, and a resulting gap in the roller table (20, 20′) is then filled by at least one roller table roll (14, 14′), which is swivelable into position in the roller table.
