Method of and apparatus for producing metallic tape
 A method of producing a continuous metallic tape from a metallic material wire by rolling. A wire having any desired cross-sectional shape is fed into the gap between a pair of rolls in a direction parallel to the axes of the rolls. The rolls are adapted to be reciprocatingly rotated or oscillated through a predetermined angular stroke. Guide members are provided at the material wire inlet side and the product tape outlet side for shifting the wire and the tape in a direction perpendicular to the direction of feed reciprocatingly and in synchronism with the rotation of the rolls. Pinch rolls are provided for intermittently feeding the wire when the latter is out of the area of rolling pressure.
