Rolling Mill Packaging, Transportation and Storage Requirements

We have introduced a lot of knowledge about the use and operation of rolling mills. However, if we want to ensure the normal use of the rolling mill machine, we need to comply with certain requirements for its packaging, transportation, and storage. Now we will introduce this aspect for you, hoping to provide a reference. 

First of all, let's take a look at how to properly pack the rolling mill. In general, since the equipment is shipped in bulk during transportation, it is required to wrap the motor part with a plastic cloth during packaging so as to prevent damage due to moisture. In addition, the shaft head of all exposed parts also needs to be wrapped with plastic cloth to prevent damage and corrosion.

As for other parts of the rolling mill, it is necessary to apply antirust oil in advance to avoid rusting in early summer. Therefore, in the process of transportation, what should we pay attention to? When loading, unloading and hoisting the equipment, it is necessary to operate it carefully and ensure that the rope used has sufficient strength. At the same time, it should be noted that the protruding part of the equipment shall not be damaged during lifting, and it is better to use some soft things for protection.

In the process of transportation, it is necessary to ensure that the rolling mill machine is fixed so as to avoid sloshing, and no strong vibration or impact. During the driving process, the speed should be uniform and the driving should be stable. In addition, we also need to pay attention to some problems when storing the product.

When the rolling mill arrives, we need to remove it from the box and check it carefully. The rolling mill equipment is then placed in a ventilated and dry room to prevent rust damage. If long-term storage is required, it should be cleaned and rust-proofed.

Precautions of Cold Rolling Mill

1. Preparation for Startup

Let the rolling mill equipment idle for about 10 minutes. During this period, observe whether the device is running normally, and add lubricating oil and rolling oil to lubricate the equipment properly according to the regulations.

2. Precautions before Unloading

(1) The press should be raised to the specified position, the reel should be retracted into position, and the hydraulic truck should be prepared in advance for auxiliary discharge.

(2) The aluminum plate plug should be inserted into the jaws successfully, otherwise, it will be difficult to insert.

3. Some Considerations

(1) The time for each jog of the machine should not exceed one second. The turbine should be adjusted to reduce the turbine. The adjustment amount on both sides should be equal to avoid the side bend of the rolled piece.

(2) When the cold rolling mill is running, someone should be responsible for guarding to prevent problems.

(3) Generally speaking, the thickness of one rolling of a single cold rolling mill should not exceed 40% of the aluminum plate.

(4) There should be no debris in the production line.

(5) Appropriate adjustments should be made to the pass and reduction depending on the material of the incoming material and the capacity of the rolling mill.

(6) The use of cold rolling mills should meet the requirements of the main technical parameters and should not be overloaded.

(7) The mill roll should not have serious wear and should be replaced if necessary.

(8) In the rolling process, if the wear of the mill roll has affected the surface quality and dimensional accuracy of the rolled piece, the roll should be changed immediately. After changing the roller, it should idle for 2 to 3 minutes.

(9) If there is any phenomenon such as tearing or skewing of the rolled piece, the hand can not be used. It should be stopped first and then taken out.

(10) Rolled finished products or semi-finished products should be filled out with relevant records and stacked in batches.

How to Improve the Operation Efficiency of High-speed Rolling Mill?

High-speed rolling mill is similar to the conventional rolling mill. The ultimate goal is to obtain the required size of the rolled piece by rolling mill calendering. In rolling operation, in order to improve the operation efficiency of the high-speed rolling mill, it is necessary to take corresponding improvement measures.

       

The operation efficiency of high-speed rolling mill is mostly affected by unplanned parking, other equipment delays, roll and bearing replacement, and other process maintenance. Therefore, we need to improve the operation efficiency of the high-speed rolling mill in a planned way. The specific operations are as follows:

1. The material of rolls should be screened according to the requirements of the rolled parts to improve the fatigue strength and service life of the rolls. 

2. Inspect the wear of roll and guide from time to time.

3. Inverse injection process of bearing lubricant from inside to outside to inside, so as to reduce the pollution of dust to bearing.

4. Using ultrasonic technology to inspect and analyze rolls.

5. The dry lubricating oil point has been modified. At present, the dry oil is added from the high-pressure zone. The amount of added oil increases from six cycles of raw materials to eleven cycles, and the thin oil lubrication is a 15-minute cycle. The cumulative effect of these changes can reduce the bearing temperature by several degrees Celsius.

With the upgrading of the steel rolling industry, new problems will arise, and we need to optimize and adjust the rolling process according to the actual situation at any time. This process requires us to explore step by step for a long time.

How to Carry out Daily Maintenance of Rolling Mill?

Rolling mills are widely used in the steel industry. In order to ensure the smooth running of daily work, daily maintenance is particularly important. It should be noted that the daily maintenance of the rolling mills will affect the service life. So how to carry out the daily maintenance of the rolling mill, how to operate?

Every day, the rolling mill is inspected for oil, water and gas leakage and overheating of the machine parts; reducing the loss caused by the illegal operation of the equipment or maintenance, and when lifting the rubber rolls, take necessary maintenance measures at the chain, rope and end of the roll surface.

The automatic thickness control system on the rolling mill is operated strictly in accordance with the rolling mill operating process and operating methods. The gearbox should be cleaned at least once a quarter. When the roll is fed to the extreme position, special attention must be paid to the safe operation of the rolling mill. Care should be taken when performing the rolling mill operation to prevent the hand from being pressed by the steel plate and being fed together with the steel. When using the aircraft hoisting mill for inspection, be careful not to collide with the machine.

In the rolling operation, the personnel of each department should coordinate with each other and listen to the command of the person in charge of the rolling mill production line. In the rolling process, the roller and the raceway are in line contact or repaired line contact, and the radial bearing capacity is large and is suitable for bearing heavy load and impact load. If irregular noise is found, such as the abnormal phenomenon that the roller cannot be touched by the sudden release of the load after the steel bar is interrupted, it should be stopped immediately and checked, and the steel rolling production line can be completely stopped before being repaired. After the main drive of the motor is stopped, the upper and lower rolls can be lifted and lowered. When cleaning, firstly, in the hot state, stop the oil drain screw on the side of the gearbox, and turn the rollover of the roll and the lifting of the upper roll.

After the end of rolling, the finished material should be cleared, and the equipment maintenance and repair work should be done. In order to strengthen the effective management of the equipment, the equipment utilization rate should be improved, and the power supply should be turned off in time.

The Adjustment of Steel Rolling Mill

Before the steel rolling mill is used, the roll pass, controlling plate shape and backup roll should be adjusted according to the requirement; and the fixed position of the rolls in the rolling mill should be maintained. The workload of the roll bearing is heavy and varies greatly, so the friction coefficient of the bearing is required to be small.

After determining the product rolled by the rolling mill, the line speed of the rolling mill can be basically determined. The hardness of the raw materials is measurable. The rolling stock of the rolling mill is determined by changing the plastic deformation size.
Usually, the newly installed steel rolling mill has a running-in process. During the running-in process, the rolls are operated in a second operation, and the operation speed is 50%, 65%, 75%, and 85%. Different steel rolling mill models use the rolls with different materials and specifications for different rolling products.

After the steel rolling mill is installed, the gears of the reducer and the gearbox need to have meshed, the rolling speed is too fast, and the torque is enhanced. After the normal operation of the rolling mill for 30 days, stop the rolling mill and check the meshing of the large and small gears, and waits for everything to be normal, the rolling speed can be increased.

Under normal circumstances, it is not necessary to adjust the rolling speed. The rolls in the steel rolling mill is constantly worn during the running process. In order to keep the rolling mill stable in the controlled rolling requirements, the roll must be repaired in time, and the rolls need to be replaced in serious cases.

The steel rolling mill needs labor, even the automated equipment needs to be monitored manually in the console. The conveyor roller and shearing machine located in the automatic rolling mill must be strictly controlled during operation to avoid the failure of stacking steel or jamming. If the wear of roll and guide exceeds the specified range, it needs to be replaced. 

The rolling of the billet causes the roll to be squeezed instantaneously, and the bearing is subjected to correspondingly high pressure, thereby affecting the product size of the rolled steel. We may also need to make in-depth improvements, but the ultimate goal is to get better steel rolling mill equipment.
