A Universal Continuous Caster-Hot Strip Mill Direct Rolling Process by Effective Utilization of the Unique Schedule Free Rolling Operation System

Metallurgically Consistent Determination of Steel Hot Strength Using Process Data from Hot Strip Mill Rolling

It is not rare to observe an inverse relationship between hot strength determined from rolling load of the finishing stands of the hot strip mill and strain. This situation was already described in the literature and is explained by the use of inverse rolling load models that assumes sticking friction in the determination of hot strength. The aim of this work was to show that this “work softeni...

Integration of Continuous Caster and Hot Strip Mill Planning for Steel Production 9/11/99 Integration of Continuous Caster and Hot Strip Mill Planning for Steel Production

In this paper we present a model and a solution approach for integration of steel continuous casters and hot strip mills to provide more responsive steel production at lower unit cost. We describe the production environment and survey existing methods for planning continuous casters and hot strip mills. Since these processes lie at the solid/liquid interface we use “virtual” slabs, correspondin...

Coiler Control in Endless Hot Strip Rolling

JFE Steel Corporation’s East Japan Works (Chiba District) started operation of No.3 Hot Strip Mill in 1995. This line was the first in the world to achieve “endless hot strip rolling.” A new Coiler Control technology was developed. Copyright 2005 IFAC

Bayesian Neural Network of Rolling Force Prediction for Hot-Strip Mill

For obtaining relative accurate rolling-mill model is difficulty by the simple mathematical method, due to the complexity of the actual production scene and the non-linear relationship between variables, this paper firstly proposes an improved Bayesian regularization neural network model according to these measured data of 1580 production line. In this model, the paper constructs the improved B...
