    Abstract: The invention relates to a casting-rolling system (1) for generating a thin or ultra-thin band from a cast thin slab made of steel in batch or continuous operation, comprising at least one casting system (2a, 2b) for casting a thin slab with a casting thickness from 90 mm to 150 mm, preferably from 90 mm to 140 mm, particularly preferably from 100 mm to 130 mm, and a casting width of at least 600 mm, preferably at least 1000 mm, at least one continuous furnace (7a, 7b) arranged downstream of the at least one casting system (2a, 2b), as well as at least 7, preferably 8 roll stands (9, 10, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20) arranged downstream of the continuous furnace (7a, 7b), wherein the at least one casting system (2a, 2b) comprises a casting mould (3a, 3b) with long sides spaced apart from one another by at least 90 mm to 150 mm, preferably 90 mm to 140 mm, particularly preferably 100 mm to 130 mm, and wherein the casting-rolling system (1) has no induction heater for reheating the cast thin slab and/or the rolled band. The invention also relates to a method for generating a thin or ultra-thin band, preferably by means of a casting-rolling system (1) of this type, wherein the thin slab and/or the band does not undergo any induction heating during the method for generating the thin or ultra-thin band.

    Abstract: A method for producing a metal strip in a cast-rolling installation, the cast-rolling installation includes the following: a casting machine, a first furnace, a first shear, a roughing train, a second furnace, a second shear, a finishing train, a cooling section, a reeling system, and a third shear. In order to allow a flexible reaction to different operating conditions, at least one of the following operating modes is selected in order to produce the strip: a) a continuous rolling, in which the casting machine, the roughing train, and the finishing train are operatively connected together; b) a continuous rolling in the roughing train and a single-strip rolling in the finishing train; c) a single-strip rolling in the roughing train and a single-strip rolling in the finishing train; and d) a semi-continuous rolling in the roughing train and/or a semi-continuous rolling in the finishing train.

    Abstract: A device for producing hot-rolled metal strips has a casting machine that produces and transports slabs in a transport line of the casting machine. A rolling mill forms the slabs into corresponding metal strips during transport along a transport line of the rolling mill. A combination transport and temperature-influencing device is arranged between the casting machine and the rolling mill transports the slabs at least along the transport line of the rolling mill, feeds the slabs to the rolling mill and sets the temperature of the slabs to a rolling temperature. A surface device is arranged between the casting machine and the combination transport and temperature-influencing device and processes and/or treats and/or inspects at least one of the surfaces of the slabs. A temperature-influencing device is arranged between the casting machine and the combination transport and temperature-influencing device and modifies the temperature of the slabs.

    Abstract: An apparatus for producing and further processing slabs of a metal, preferably steel, comprises: a continuous casting apparatus, which is designed to produce at least one cast strand and to transport it in a transport direction; a cutting device, which is arranged behind the continuous casting apparatus, as seen in the transport direction, and is designed to cut the cast strand into slabs; at least a first route and a second route, which implement, at least in some portions, different process lines for the further processing of the slabs; and a process control system, which is designed to make a route decision on a slab-specific basis as a function of at least one measured or calculated process parameter, which route decision assigns one of the plurality of routes to the respective slab, and to initiate the further processing of the corresponding slab along the assigned route.
