The work rolls in four-high strip mills and the rolls in two-high fine-section and wire mills are predominantly fitted with angular contact ball bearings as axial bearings (Figure 10). The chock arranged on the drive end is not axially located in the roll stand, but is guided on the roll neck by the axial bearing.

Thus, it was desired to develop a new type of mill which is capable of controlling the rolled strip shape even with changes in rolling conditions. The performance of a conventional 4-High mill is not satisfactory in these requirements. A new 6-High cold rolling mill (hereinafter HC-MILL) has been developed in order to solve these shape problems.

the rolls get deflected by high rolling forces. Elastic deformation of the mill takes place. If we use stiffer rolls, namely roll material of high stiffness or elastic constant, we could avoid mill spring. Normally elastic constant for mills may range from 1 to 4 GNm-1. Roll elastic deformation may result in uneven sheet thickness across.

Fig 2, Heat Migration in Cold Mill Work rolls (Hotter regions shown in red) This localized heat input / output process results in a non-uniform distribution of heat, circumferentially around the roll and transversely across the roll body. Additionally the roll is subjected to Thermal and Mechanical Fatigue during rolling:

20 High Cluster Mills utilize small diameter work rolls which allow higher reductions on harder materials than other mill configurations. The multi-roll system having employs a unique roll configuration with adjustment capabilities to control strip shape and compensate for the effects of rolling a wide range of different strip widths to very thin thicknesses.

Greater strength: Cold rolled steel can exhibit strength up to 20% greater than that of hot rolled steel, which makes it more suitable for use in high-stress applications. Better surface finishes: Parts and products made from cold rolled steel generally have a smooth and shiny surface that is free of rust and scale.

mill is using 0.5 meter diameter rolls, the circumference of the roll would be roughly equivalent to 50 milliseconds. In order to see any eccentricity or periodic event related to a roll of this diameter, one would need to have a thickness sensor not only capable of operating at 5ms, but being able to provide measurements with manageable signal to

Manufacturing of rolls for steel wire cold rolling is prominent among the products in Atomat catalogue. These products were introduced since the very beginning of the production activities growing step by step with the Company improvement …

Rolls for sheet cold rolling mills are divided into the following applications: work and back-up rolls. See Fig. 3 and 4. Roll diameter is selected based on the calculations done with due account for range of sizes (its thickness), operating conditions, mechanical properties of rolled products, max. forces, drafting, and line design.

2. Three-High Rolling Mills: In this mill, the three rolls stand in parallel one by others. The rolls are rotating in opposite directions. In this mill, between the first and the second rolls, the material passes. If the second roll rotates in a direction then the bottom roll rotates in another direction.

Applications include crumbling pellets, cracking corn, dry rolling and steam flaking grain, and grinding corn, ... roller mill is operated with the rolls out of tram or out of parallel, significant thrust loads may be exerted on the rolls and bearings. In machines with straight bore bearings, the forces ... to the rolls or roll adjusting ...

rolling mill, dedicated roll cooling systems are required to fulfill the required functions. Examples are suitable roll cooling and lubricationsystems to fully utilize the advantages of HSS rolls in hot strip mills, and selective roll cooling systems as a method to control the flatness of the strip in cold rolling mills.

The work rolls in four-high strip mills and the rolls in two-high fine-section and wire mills are predominantly fitted with angular contact ball bearings as axial bearings (Figure 10). The chock arranged on the drive end is not axially located in the roll stand, but is guided on the roll neck by the axial bearing. Since the guidance forces are

2 Principles and Applications of Metal Rolling (ii) Shape of the rolled product- flat, sections or hollow sections rolling. (iii) Direction of rolling- lengthwise, transverse, and skew rolling. (iv) Mode of rolling mill operation- continuous (unidirectional), and reverse rolling, where direction of rotation of rolls are reversed. When two rolls of equal diameter and with axis lying …

•Roll-strip contact length L •Average strip width w –despite the fact that spreading, or an increase in width, may actually occur if edger mills are not used •Average true stress of the strip in the roll gap Y avg •Assumes no friction and thus predicts lower roll force than the actual value •Power per roll (SI units)= pFLN / 60,000 kW

A comprehensive metallurgical investigation was carried out on samples of prematurely failed cold-strip mill work-rolls used in an integrated steel plant to study the influence of microstructural characteristics on failure propensity and roll life. The samples pertained to 3 wt.% Cr-base forged steel work-rolls, which exhibited variations in roll life despite operation under similar mill ...
