Abstract
The machine for removing burrs from slabs (1) issuing from a continuous casting installation and cut to the desired length by oxygen cutting, is of the type comprising a rotor (10) carrying on its periphery self-retractable hammers (11). The rotor (10) comprises a hub (12) on which are fixed, at each end, an end flange (13) in the form of a circular collar and, between these two end flanges (13), pairs (14) of semi-flanges (15) which are in the form of semi-circular collars and are adjacent and opposed. Each pair (14) of semi-flanges (15) is evenly spaced apart in the longitudinal direction of the hub (12) and one of the semi-flanges (15) of each pair (14) is offset in this longitudinal direction relative to the other of the semi-flanges (15) of this pair (14). The invention also provides a rotor employed in this type of burr-removing machine.
