Abstract
The device for inductively reheating the verges of a metallurgical product moving down a production line comprises wound pole inductors with C-shaped magnetic yokes, arranged laterally straddling the path followed by the verges. The two arms of the C are trunnioned to open to a greater or lesser extent, providing a variable air gap, controlled by a cylinder.
