Method for rolling strip-shaped rolling stock, in particular metal strip

Method of rolling metal strip,

• wherein the metal strip initially travels through a pickling line and then between two reversing reels, through a reversing rolling mill, and wherein the end of a metal strip is welded to the beginning of a next following metal strip before the pickling line, and wherein prior to reeling the finished rolled metal strip, a separation of the welded together metal strips takes place,
• comprising the following sequence:
• the metal strip A emerging from the pickling line travels through two roll stands (3, 4) of the reversing rolling mill and is then reeled onto the reversing reel (1) arranged following the reversing rolling mill;
• wherein, prior to entering the pickling line (5), the beginning of the next following metal strip B has already been welded onto the end of the metal strip A;
• this strip beginning of metal strip B is now rolled together with strip A over a length which corresponds to an initial winding length up to a tension-buildup and also travels onto the reversing reel (1);
• during subsequent reversing, the metal strip B is separated from the metal strip A by shears (6) such that the already rolled strip beginning of the metal strip B remains with the remaining metal strip B which has not yet been rolled;
• subsequently the reversing rolling of the complete metal strip A takes place, wherein after emerging from the reversing rolling mill, the metal strip A runs onto the reversing reel arranged upstream of the reversing stand;
• as soon as the metal strip A is completely on the reversing reel (2), the metal strip B is fed to the reversing rolling mill and the above sequence is repeated with this metal strip B and a subsequent metal strip C.
