New composite rolls for high performance rolling mills.

Rolling conditions in hot strip mills and their influence on the performance of work rolls

The mechanical rolling conditions in hot strip mills are precisely defined by various variables, which are taken directly froth the rolling schedule (separation force, torque. speed. strip thickness) or calculated from figures of the rolling schedule and dimensions of the mill (strip reduction, roll diameter etc.). These variables allow to describe the mechanical rolling conditions of all passe...

Rolling mill simulator A new platform for testing, analysis and optimization of cold rolling mills

The cold rolling of flat metal products especially in tandem or multi-stand mills is a highly complex process where the product quality is influenced by various aspects. With the help of a hardware-in-the-loop simulator, the complete rolling process can be simulated and tested in real-time. This allows pre-commissioning and pre-optimizations before the actual commissioning work is done on the p...

Probability Analysys for Rolling Rolls Calculation as per Probabilistic Method

Two calculation methods are mainly implemented during the construction as well as modeling of the rolling rolls. These are: deterministic (classical) and probabilistic – calculation based on reliability. When using deterministic method, starting point considers that the workloads as well as material specifications are invariable values. However, in reality, rolling rolls are burdened with varia...

Neural Network Control for Rolling Mills

Worldwide, steel and aluminum production and manufacturing is still one of the major basic industries with a huge amount of material and energy consumption. Hence, optimization of the various process control schemes which are involved can lead to signiicant savings. Artiicial Neural Networks are a new information processing technique which provides a novel approach to process control problems a...
