Abstract: Method line to roll strip and plate starting from thin slabs produced by continuous casting, whereby the cast product is subjected to at least one descaling operation followed by a roughing operation and by a finishing operation before being wound in coils, thin slabs being cast continuously at the same time by a continuous casting machine with at least one casting line (11), the thin slabs being then sheared to size to obtain segments of the desired length, the segments then undergoing a first descaling step and then being accelerated into the heating furnace (18) consisting of modules and then to a second descaling unit (21) and then through a roughing rolling mill stand (22), before being delivered to a tunnel furnace (24), a third descaling unit (27) and a finishing train (12).
