The invention relates to a device for producing strip material, in particular hot strip, comprising: lateral guide elements (5) which are arranged on both sides of the strip material (4), in particular along a roller table (1) with several rollers (2), at least one rotating wear body (6) on each side guide element (5).
In order to further minimize the wear of guide elements when transporting hot strip over a roller conveyor, the invention proposes a speed control device (7) for setting a speed of the at least one wear element, a position control device (9) for setting an extended position of the at least one wear element and a positioning drive (13) for extending the at least one wear body to an extended position.
