In order to analyze the flatness control characteristics for a certain UCMW (Universal Crown Mill with Work roll shifting) cold rolling mill, combined with the actual parameters in the field, a static simulation model of the quarter roll systems of the UCMW cold rolling mill was established by the ANSYS finite element software. The bearing roll gaps under the factors of the unit width rolling force, the roll bending force and the roll shift were calculated, which reflects the shape control characteristics and has a great influence on the friction and lubrication characteristics between the roll gaps. Additionally, the shape control strategy of the process parameters in the field was put forward. The results show that, at first, the work roll shift is the most effective shape control means, while the current-used range of the intermediate roll shift cannot make full use of the roll end contour of the intermediate roll, so the intermediate roll negative shift should be considered for shape control. At second, the excessive rolling force goes against the shape control, so the rolling force of each stand should be reasonably distributed. Finally, the shape control ability of the bending force is relatively weak, so the range of the work roll bending force should be appropriately increased.

In this paper, adaptive learning method of bending force presetting model in a six-high cold rolling mill is introduced. Adaptive learning coefficient of bending force presetting model is calculated by contrast between measured and model calculated actual bending force, then exponential method is used to modify the adaptive learning coefficient to improve the precision of the bending force presetting model. While calculating model calculated actual bending force, Legendre polynomials are used to convert measured flatness data to quadratic and quartic flatness coefficient, then regulating quantity on the quadratic flatness coefficient of intermediate roll bending force and work roll bending force is determined based on their regulate capability. Practical application shows that precision of the bending force presetting model has improved significantly by adaptive learning.

Control Capability

A 3D elastic-plastic finite element method (FEM) model of cold strip rolling for 6-high continuous variable crown (CVC) rolling mill was developed. The rolling force distributions were obtained by the internal iteration processes. The calculated error has been significantly reduced by the developed model. the absolute error between the simulated results and the actual values is obtained to be less than 10μm, and relative error is less than 1%. The developed model is significant in investigating the profile control capability of the CVC cold rolling mill in terms of work roll bending, intermediate roll bending and intermediate roll shifting.

New Type

This paper focuses on a new type of 8-roll cold rolling mill with the back-up bearing roll. Compared to the traditional 6-roll cold rolling mill, a thick-walled bearing roll is used to multi-support the intermediate roll. By the rack, the fan-shaped gears, the eccentric core shaft and the servo-cylinder, the work roll can be pushed down by this screw down device on the top of the mill; By contrast with the 4(6)-roll mill, this type of mill has some characteristics, such as: the small size of rolls, lighter weight, the fast response for the screw down. The bearing roll is fixed by the supporting blocks placed on the rolling-mill housing. So this mill has large traverse rigidity, and this is propitious to the flatness control. By different means of strip flatness adjustments, such as the intermediate roll shifting, the roll bending and the bearing roll adjusting, the strip flatness can be well controlled. The oil-gas lubrication is used in the bearings of the bearing rolls, and the changing rolls equipment is designed for this type of mill too. A series of this type of mills (as 450, 800, 1250, 1450 series) have been produced since it was developed in 1997. The mills for 1250 and 1450 series have been applied in five-stand cold rolling mill and single stand reversing mill, a rolling speed of 800m/min has been achieved.

Shape control is always a key issue in the six-high rolling mill, in which the shifting of the intermediate roll and the work roll have been used to enhance the shape control capability. In this paper, a finite element method (FEM) model has been developed to simultaneously simulate the strip deformation and the roll stack deformation for the six-high rolling mill. The effects of the work-roll bending, the shifting of the intermediate roll and the work roll on the strip crown and edge drop are discussed in details. Results have shown that both higher bending force and more roll shifting will significantly reduce the strip crown. The edge drop is also reduced with the bending force and the roll shifting.

Asymmetrical Bending

When there appeared catastrophic asymmetrical flatness defects in rolling processes, especially when the incoming strip is with a wedge shape, the tilting roll can hardly eliminate these defects completely. Moreover, the overshooting of tilting roll will lead to strip break. In order to improve the ability of cold rolling mill for asymmetrical flatness defects control, performance of the work roll asymmetrical bending as well as the intermediate roll asymmetrical bending has been analyzed, based on the actuator efficiency factors of them. In addition, for the purpose of obtaining accurate efficiency factors matrixes of actuators, a self-learning determination model of actuator efficiency factors was established in accordance with the practical rolling processes. In this paper, a 1250 single stand 6-H reversible UCM cold mill was taken as the object of this study, with efficiency factors of asymmetrical roll bending analyzed, which provides a theoretical basis for better flatness control. Analysis shows that the asymmetrical roll bending is significant for asymmetrical flatness control.

. For UCM cold rolling mill, the intermediate roll shifting can enhance the ability of mill for better flatness control, but it will increase the non-uniform distribution of pressure between rolls, as result of a reduced roll life. In order to improve the contact state among rolls in rolling processes and to slow down the roll wear, the distribution of pressure between rolls under different forms of roll bending control has been calculated and analyzed by the influence function method in this paper. For the purpose of obtaining comprehensive information, not only the distributions of pressure between rolls with traditional work roll symmetrical bending and intermediate roll symmetrical bending have been analyzed, but also the distributions of pressure between rolls with non-symmetrical roll bending have been analyzed. All the analyses show that the work roll non-symmetrical bending as well as the intermediate roll non-symmetrical bending can play an important role in the slowing down of roll wear.

Due to the requirement of magnetic properties of silicon steel sheets, producing high-precision size strips is the main aim of the cold rolling industry. The tapered work roll shifting technique of the six-high cold rolling mill is effective in reducing the difference in transverse thickness of the strip edge, but the effective area is limited, especially for a high crown strip after the hot rolling process. The six-high mill with a small work roll size can produce a strip with higher strength and lower thickness under a smaller rolling load. At the same time, the profile of the strip can be substantially improved. By advancing a well-established analytical method, a series of simulation analyses are conducted to reveal the effectiveness of a small work roll radius for the strip profile in the six-high cold rolling process. Through the analysis of flattening deformation and deflection deformation on the load, the change rule of the strip profile produced by the work roll with a small roll diameter can be obtained. Combined with theoretical analysis and industrial experiments, it can be found that the improvement effect of the small work roll radius on the profile of the silicon strip is as significant.
