Rolling mill simulator A new platform for testing, analysis and optimization of cold rolling mills
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 plant site. This reduces project schedule and safety risks and guarantees a much faster plant start-up.

Optimization of Reduction Settings and Inter-stand Tensions for Tandem Cold Mills using Genetic Algorithm
Cold rolling process is a complicated process which can be optimized by changing in variables and settings. This paper presents a set-up optimization system developed to calculate reductions and inter-stand tensions for each stand of a five stand tandem cold mill. The main objective in this optimization is minimization of power consumption. First, by using the analytical method, the equations ...
متن کاملA New Temper Rolling Force Model for Dry Thick Strip Considering Fully Elastic Contact
Temper rolling or skin pass rolling is one of cold rolling processes composed of a horizontal pass cold rolling mill stand. In this process, the thick strip is subjected to very light reduction (0.5–4%) in thickness in the presence of high friction amplitudes. One of the basic parameters of strip rolling processes is temper rolling force. A new rolling force model has been proposed for temper r...
