transfer table is an essential stage between roughing and finishing rolling stands in a hot-strip rolling mill. high temperature and long time that strip is exposed to air at this stage cause a considerable heat loss that accounts for uneven temperature distribution, non-uniform surfaces, reduced product quality and increased production costs. using thermal shields on the transfer table is cons...

This paper is concerned with investigations into the effect of tension between the stands of the finishing mill on width control in a hot rolling process. An analysis is given to predict satisfactorily the variation in width due to spreading and also due to strip tension between the stands. Wusatowski's model which is developed to give an account of spreading is specified and a similar model to...

Limited by the deficiency of the finite element method (FEM) to deal with infinite domain problems, the traditional FEM rolling model is not suitable enough to study the effect of the complex internal stress of the incoming strip on hot rolling deformation. To solve this problem, the finite element and infinite element (FE-IE) coupling method is adopted, where the finite element is for the roll...

Hydraulic bending roll system has become one of key equipments to control the exit strip shape in strip rolling mills. The hydraulic bending roll system of a hot rolling mill was researched and analyzed, and its mathematics models were founded in whole based on the action principle of some representative hydraulic components. At last, the hydraulic bending roll system was simulated with MATLAB ...

Scale defects are common surface defects in hot steel rolling. The modelling of such defects is problematic and their causes are not straightforward. In this study, we investigated genetic algorithms in search for a mathematical solution to scale formation. For this research, a high-dimensional data set from hot steel rolling process was gathered. The synchronisation of the variables as well as...

The decrease in hot strength or even rolling load as strain increases in some stands of the finishing hot strip mill with no metallurgical reasons is a relatively common event. Apparently this fact is associated with modification in the tribological conditions between rolling stock and work roll surfaces due to unexpected interactions with scale. The aim of this work was to determine the values...

The final hot strip profile is a superposition of the roll initial crown, the roll bending and flattening crown, the roll wearing crown and the roll thermal crown. In this research, linear regression models are proposed to predict the roll force, the roll wearing crown and the roll thermal crown using experimental data provided by Mobarake Steel Complex (MSC). The short beam theory based on ela...
