Short Stress Rolling Mill

short stress rolling mill

The short stress rolling mill refers to the profile rolling mill with short stress loop of the working machine. The stress loop of the working frame refers to the connection of the neutral line of the elastic deformation section of the stressed parts in the rolling mill after the rolling force is applied to the rolling mill. The length of the stress loop is the sum of the lengths of the stressed parts in the rolling mill. The elastic deformation produced by each stressed part in the rolling stand is directly proportional to its sectional area and inversely proportional to its length. The shorter the stress loop in the stand, the smaller the elastic deformation produced, the greater the stiffness of the rolling mill (see the stiffness coefficient of the rolling mill) and the higher the accuracy of the rolled products.

short stress rolling mills

There are two ways to shorten the stress loop of the rolling mill: one is to change the form of the bearing structure of the rolling mill, that is, to reduce the number of bearing parts in the rolling mill base. For example, for the houseless rolling mill, shorten the stress loop by shortening the length of the stressed parts; The second is to change the transmission path of the force, such as making the rolling force not directly act on the upper part of the archway window, but on the column close to the rolling mill, so as to shorten the stress loop.

rolling mill stand

The advantages of short stress line rolling mill are:

(1) The high rigidity of the rolling mill ensures the high precision of the product, and it is easy to realize negative deviation rolling.

(2) It can realize symmetrical adjustment. This is of great significance for stabilizing operation, improving operation rate, saving maintenance and replacement time of guide beam, reducing operation accidents, avoiding process accidents such as rolled piece elbow, impact and roll winding, and improving the service life of guide.

(3) Because the rolling mill changes the transmission path of force and changes the concentrated load of the pressed screw into the dispersed load scattered on both sides of the bearing pedestal, the stress condition of the bearing and the bearing pedestal is better, and the service life of the bearing is more than 1.5 times higher than that of the ordinary rolling mill, so as to reduce the cost of the product.

(4) The roll system of this rolling mill shall be pre-installed and adjusted before roll change, and the new roll system can be changed about 10min after shutdown. The adjusted new roll system can ensure that the products are qualified after rolling one or two pieces of steel. Therefore, the mill has good preset performance, fast roll change and high yield.

rolling mill line

Short stress line rolling mill, also known as no archway rolling mill, is a kind of high stiffness rolling mill. When used as section steel rolling mill, it should not only have high radial stiffness, but also have high axial stiffness. At present, various types of short stress line mills have been developed in China, such as GY type, HB type, CW type, SY type, GW type and DW type. Among them, there are three representative types: Gy type short stress line mill, Hb type non-archway mill and Sy type high stiffness mill. These rolling mills are self-developed with reference to the P-60 Memorial archless rolling mill in Sweden and in combination with their different conditions. Therefore, the high-stress line structure of their main stress parts is similar, but there are some differences in support mode and some specific structures, and each has its own characteristics.

What Is Cold Rolling Mill?

cold rolling

Cold rolling mill is a new type of steel bar cold rolling equipment. The machine can process hot-rolled wire rods and circles with a diameter of 6.5 mm to 12 mm into cold-rolled ribbed bars with a finished specification diameter of 5 mm to 12 mm. The cold-rolled ribbed steel bar rolled by cold rolling mill is an updated product of cold drawn low-carbon steel wire in prestressed concrete members. In cast-in-situ concrete structure, it can replace grade I steel bar to save steel. It is a better kind of cold-worked steel of the same kind. If speed regulation is not required in the rolling process of the cold rolling mill, AC motor can be used; If speed regulation is required in the rolling process of the cold rolling mill, DC motor can be used.


Structure Composition:

The cold rolling mill is composed of working mechanism and transmission mechanism, in which:


① The working mechanism is composed of frame, roll, roll bearing, roll adjustment mechanism, guide device, rolling seat, etc.


② The transmission mechanism is composed of gear base, reducer, roll, connecting shaft, coupling, etc.


The gantry horizontal double active rolling mill set is composed of two active rolling mills. The installation mode and structure of the two rolling mills are the same. The main transmission part adopts the structural form of "motor → reducer → cardan shaft → rolling mill". 

The two rolling mills are horizontal rolling mills, and the rolls are installed horizontally. The rolling mill adopts gantry archway, the roll ring is sleeved on the roll spindle, and the nuts are fixed. The two ends of the roll spindle are equipped with bearing pedestal and installed in the middle of the gantry. The bearing pedestal and the gantry archway frame are installed together to fix the rolls horizontally in the middle of the gantry. 

The installation methods of the upper and lower rolls are the same. One pass reducing mill flattens the raw materials, extrudes the rib reinforcement with the crescent on both sides through the two-pass forming mill, twists the guide and adjusts the rolled piece to realize that after one pass rolling, the elliptical rolled piece is twisted by 90 ° and enters the two-pass forming mill to roll the finished reinforcement.

cold rolling mill equipment

Working Principle:

The cold rolling mills use the motor to drag the reinforcement, and the load-bearing roll and working roll of the cold rolling mill jointly apply the force to the two surfaces of the reinforcement. By changing the gap between the two rolls, the purpose of rolling cold-rolled ribbed bars with different diameters is realized.


① Bearing roll: the bearing roll of the cold rolling mill is the roll closest to the base. When producing ribbed reinforcement, the roll plays the role of supporting the reinforcement, and evenly disperses the gravity of the reinforcement and the gravity of the work roll on the bearing roll, so as to produce ribs on the lower surface of the reinforcement.


② Work roll: the work roll of the cold rolling mill is above the load-bearing roll and is the farthest from the base. Therefore, when producing ribbed reinforcement, the roll mainly plays the role of rolling the reinforcement lifted by the load-bearing roll, so as to produce ribs on the upper surface of the reinforcement.


Maintenance:

① Check whether the electrical system of the cold rolling mill is normal before starting each shift;


② Check whether the oil level of each oil tank is normal;


③ Whether each oil filling part is filled with oil;


④ Whether the base metal feeding is reasonable;


⑤ After checking the above items;


⑥ The electrical part of the cold rolling mill should often clean up dust and sundries;


⑦ Frequently check whether the fastening of moving parts is loose and reasonable.


⑧ During the production process, the cold rolling mill shall not be used beyond the limit to avoid damage to some mechanical parts of the cold rolling mill. It shall be rolled according to the rolling standard, so as to ensure the safe use of cold rolling mill equipment and the qualification of products.

LF Ladle Furnace Refining Process

LF ladle furnace

1. LF Ladle Furnace Refining Process

LF refining is to pour molten steel into the ladle furnace and remove 50-90% of the oxidized slag, add reducing slag and deoxidizer for reduction refining. If the stirring time, slag amount and stirring power under heating are appropriately increased, 100% slag removal during tapping can further reduce the sulfur content in the steel, so that [%S] <30ppm and [%O] <20ppm can make the molten steel become clean steel.


2. LF Ladle Furnace Refining Deoxidation

The solubility of oxygen in liquids and solids is very limited, and the solubility of oxygen in solid steel is much lower than in liquids. In LF refining, the molten steel from the primary furnace often contains strong oxidizing properties, which makes the LF furnace complete deep deoxidation and desulfurization and other refining tasks constitute a limiting factor. The hazards of oxygen are mainly manifested in:

(1) The LF furnaces need to smelt ultra-low sulfur steel, and the oxygen content in the molten steel or the oxygen potential of the slag will affect the equilibrium distribution of sulfur in the steel slag, and due to the presence of oxygen, the tension between the steel slag will decrease, which will affect the residual properties and quantity of sulfur-containing non-metallic inclusions in steel, so good desulfurization must first have good deoxidation.

(2) The solubility of oxygen in steel decreases significantly with the decrease of temperature, and precipitates in the form of FeO. During the cooling and crystallization process of molten steel, [C] and [O] segregate and aggregate in molten steel due to selective crystallization. , Which causes the re-oxidation of carbon. The resulting CO gas will destroy the compactness or continuity of the steel, which is the main reason for the defects such as pores, looseness and rising of the steel billet.

(3) During the cooling and solidification process of molten steel, the precipitated oxygen reacts with elements such as Si, Mn, Al in the steel to form non-metallic inclusions, which are one of the main causes of hairline defects in high-quality steel. In addition, due to the increase in the content of non-metallic inclusions, various performance indicators of steel, such as proportional limit, impact energy and elongation, and magnetic permeability, are also reduced.

(4) Oxygen in steel aggravates the harmful effects of sulfur, because FeO and FeS can form a low-melting eutectic with a melting point of 1213K, which deteriorates the plasticity of the steel or damages the body during hot working.

Ladle furnace

LF furnace generally chooses precipitation deoxidation and diffusion deoxidation, such as equipped with vacuum device and vacuum deoxidation.


(1) Precipitation Deoxygenation

Precipitation deoxidation is a method of directly adding massive deoxidizers to molten steel after removing the oxidized slag to generate stable compounds and separate them from the molten steel into the slag. The deoxidizing elements dissolved in the molten steel react with the dissolved oxygen in the molten steel. The deoxidation products in the molten steel float up and are removed due to their low density. The general formula for the deoxidation reaction of elements in molten steel is x[M]+y[O]=MxOy.

A1 and the composite deoxidizer composed of alloys containing A1 and alkaline earth elements are used more in industrial production. This is because Al2O3, the deoxidation product of A1, can easily form a low-melting, easy-to-grow compound deoxidation product (such as mCaO•n Al2O3) with other deoxidation products, which is beneficial to floating up and discharging molten steel, thereby reducing the amount of such fire impurities in the steel.


(2) Diffusion Deoxidation

Diffusion deoxidation is to add deoxidizer (mainly powdered deoxidizer) to the slag surface, and the deoxidation reaction is carried out at the interface between steel and slag. When the powdered deoxidizer is added to the slag, the content of FeO in the slag is bound to decrease, and the distribution balance of oxygen in the steel slag is destroyed. In order to achieve the rebalancing, the oxygen in the molten steel diffuses or transfers to the slag, so as to continuously reduce the oxygen content in the slag, so that the oxygen in the molten steel can be continuously removed.


(3) LF Ladle Furnace Refining Desulfurization

Generally, sulfur is a harmful element in steel, which has many effects on the quality of steel. Therefore, desulfurization is one of the important metallurgical tasks in steelmaking production. For desulfurization reaction, LF furnace refining has good thermodynamic and kinetic conditions. LF furnace refining is of great significance to the production of low-sulfur steel.

Different from alkaline oxidation slag desulfurization, the desulfurization reaction equation of LF alkaline reduction slag is:

  [FeS] + (CaO) = (CaS) + (FeO)        (1)

  [MnS] +( CaO) = (CaS) + (MnO)         (2)

Since [S] in steel mostly exists in the form of [FeS], the desulfurization reaction is mainly based on formula (1). It can be seen from the above formula that the desulfurization reaction is related to the basicity of the slag, (FeO) and (MnO) in the slag, and the amount of slag. At the same time, the desulfurization reaction is a slag-steel reaction, so the fluidity of the slag has a greater influence on the desulfurization reaction. 

In the actual production process, within a certain alkalinity range. The distribution coefficient of sulfur increases as the alkalinity of the slag increases, but when it reaches a certain level, it decreases with the increase in alkalinity. The reason is that the increase in the slag (CaO) content makes the fluidity of the slag worse and causes the desulfurization reaction. The kinetic conditions of the desulfurization are worsened, which in turn affects the progress of the desulfurization reaction. 

It can be seen from formula (1) that the increase of the content of (FeO) in the slag is not conducive to the progress of the desulfurization reaction. LF is refined into a reducing atmosphere, and the reduced slag with high basicity is conducive to the progress of the desulfurization reaction. 

The amount and fluidity of the refined slag have a greater impact on the quality of the final steel. Theoretically, the refined slag with good fluidity is beneficial to the slag-steel reaction to promote the desulfurization reaction, and a large amount of slag is beneficial to the sulfur removal in the steel. However, the increase in the amount of slag increases the thickness of the slag layer, which is not conducive to the desulfurization and the floating of inclusions. At the same time, it increases the consumption of metal materials and increases the production cost.

LF furnaces

(4) Removal of Inclusions

Argon blowing at the bottom of ladle is the last important process before molten steel continuous casting, which is very important to the quality of liquid steel and billet. There are two main ways for inclusions to float up in liquid steel: relying on their own buoyancy and adhering to the bubble surface. 

In the process of molten steel movement, inclusions will collide and agglomerate into large particle inclusions to float up by their own buoyancy (some inclusions will adhere to the bubble surface and float up by the buoyancy of bubbles). 

Therefore, the ladle bottom blowing system plays an important role in the removal of inclusions in molten steel, and the size of bubbles and the flow of molten steel will affect the floating of inclusions.

The process of removing inclusions by bubbles can be divided into the following processes: 

(1) The bubbles approach and collide with the inclusions; 

(2) The liquid film is formed between the bubbles and the inclusions; 

(3) The inclusions oscillate on the surface of the bubble or along the bubble Surface slippage; 

(4) The liquid film is discharged and ruptured to form a dynamic three-phase contact nucleus (TPC); 

(5) Bubbles/inclusion nuclei are stabilized; 

(6) Bubbles/inclusion aggregates float up. 

Among them, bubbles play an important role in the collision and adsorption of inclusions, namely steps (2)-(5). Therefore, controlling the establishment of a reasonable bottom blowing system according to different smelting conditions at the factory site plays an important role in improving the quality of molten steel.

What Is Universal Rolling Mill?

The universal rolling mill is composed of a pair of horizontal rolls and a pair of vertical rolls. The axis of the four rolls is in a plane. The horizontal rolls are the driving rolls and the vertical rolls are the driven rolls (some rolling mill vertical rolls can also be driven). It can process the rolled pieces on four sides, and the two-high horizontal rolling mill is used as the auxiliary stand (edge ​​rolling machine).

Universal rolling mills are mainly used to roll various types of steel, such as H-beam, rail, I-beam, channel steel, steel sheet pile, U-beam, L-beam, unequal angle steel and other types of steel, because it is suitable for many Variety of steel rolling, hence the name "universal rolling mill".

universal rolling mill

Features of Universal Rolling Mill

1. The complex section shape composed of four rollers can compress all components of the section at the same time, the deformation of the rolled piece is uniform, the speed difference around the section is small, and the internal stress of the rolled piece is small.

2. Rolls with a smaller diameter can be used (because there is no need to slot on the rolls) to roll products with higher legs and wider waists, and the inner sides of the legs can be made without slope. This is difficult to achieve on an ordinary two-high rolling mill.

3. The reduction of the leg and waist of the rolling piece can be adjusted separately, which simplifies the adjustment of the rolling mill during rolling.

4. The rolling precision is high, the roll wear is less, and the energy consumption is reduced.

According to the structure of the universal rolling mill, there are four main types: closed-end, UD (Universal-Duo) prestressed/short-stressed, SC (Schloemann-Siemag compact stand) connecting plate three-type and compact rolling mill.

universal rolling mills

The Development History of Universal Rolling Mill

1. The world's first universal rolling mill was built in the Arbed factory in Luxembourg in 1902, but the I-beam with a wider flange was rolled at that time, and the inner side still had a slope.

2. In 1914, the German Payin Company adopted the Green rolling method (a side rolling mill and a universal rolling mill are used together) to build the Payin H-shaped steel plant; the rolling of the rails adopts the traditional two-roll pass method.

3. In 1973, the French Vendell-Sidelor Company developed a new process for rolling steel rails on a four-high rolling mill and obtained a patent. Japan, Brazil, and the United States have followed suit and introduced them.

4. In 1998, Maanshan Iron & Steel rolled out China's first H-beam with a universal rolling mill imported from abroad.

5. Localized import and export: Since then, Laiwu Steel, Rizhao, Jinxi and other steel mills have successively introduced foreign universal rolling mills. By 2007, the number of universal rolling mills in China has shown a rapid increase, and most of the equipment has been imported at high prices from abroad. Among them, in 2003, the 300H section steel production line designed and manufactured by Tianjin Zhongzhong Science and Technology Engineering Co., Ltd. was put into operation, marking the official launch of China's self-developed universal rolling mill. Since then, the universal rolling mills of Dalian Zhengda, Tangshan Shengda, Anshan Zizhu (Anshan No. 3 Rolling), and Anshan Baode, designed and manufactured by Tianjin Zhongzhong, have been put into operation one after another.

Bar Heating Induction Furnace

The induction furnace for bar heating is well understood from the literal meaning, that is, the medium frequency furnace for heating bar. However, the connotation is not simple, and the bar heating process is relatively complex. Why do we think the bar heating induction furnace is complex? Let's give you a detailed introduction.

bar heating induction furnace

1. Differences between bar heating induction furnace and other heating furnaces

1) The heating principle is different

Most of the previous bar heating furnaces used coal, gas, oil, and resistance heating. The heating principle is radiation heating, that is, the furnace is heated to a certain temperature and transmitted to the heating bar through heat radiation, so that the bar temperature can reach the process heating temperature; The medium frequency furnace for bar heating adopts the principle of electromagnetic induction heating, which cuts the metal through the magnetic line of force, forms a vortex in the bar, the current flows, and the bar heats itself, so as to achieve the purpose of heating the bar. In other words, in the past, the heating furnace heated the bar through heat conduction, but now the heating furnace of Haishan electric furnace generates eddy current through the magnetic line of force, making the bar heat itself.

2) The heating speed is different

The previous bar heating furnace had to raise the furnace temperature to the process temperature for a long time; Now, the bar heating of electric furnace, the instantaneous electromagnetic induction of the medium frequency furnace can make the bar reach the temperature required by the heating process, which does not need the preliminary preparation for furnace temperature rise and reduces the labor intensity.

3) Meet the environmental protection requirements

The previous heating furnace will produce a large amount of smoke and dust in the combustion of coal, oil and gas, while the bar heating induction furnace makes the bar heat itself and will not produce smoke and dust, which meets the environmental protection requirements. It belongs to the heating industry and advocates the development of water temperature heating equipment.

4) The utilization rate of bar material is different

In the past, the heating time of heating furnace was long, the oxidation burning loss was large, and the utilization rate of bar oxide scale was reduced; Nowadays, the medium frequency furnace for bar heating of Haishan electric furnace has fast heating speed, reduced oxidation burning loss, greatly reduced relative oxide scale and greatly improved bar utilization.
