Pilot cold rolling mill is the important tool for the cold rolling process researching and new steel grade development. According to the design of the new type direct pulling pilot cold rolling mill, based on the mass flow constant principle, strip exit thickness indirect measurement method is studied. During rolling, strip entry and exit speed can be calculated accurately according to the measured value of two sides’ clamps movement. Data filtering treatment is adopted and program flow chart is designed. Based on the material entry thickness measured manually, exit thickness of all passes can be measured indirectly. This thickness indirect measurement method has been applied successfully on the new type pilot cold rolling mill, and the measurement results show that this method has a good accuracy.

Small Work

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.

Tandem Cold Rolling

In order to improve the cold rolled steel strip flatness, the load distribution of the tandem cold rolling process is subject to investigation and optimization. The strip deformation resistance model is corrected by an artificial neural network that is trained with the actual measured data of 4500 strip coils. Based on the model, a flatness prediction model of strip steel is established in a five-stand tandem cold rolling mill, and the precision of the flatness prediction model is verified by rolling experiment data. To analyze the effect of load distribution on flatness, the flatness of stand 4 is calculated to be 7.4 IU, 10.6 IU, and 16.8 IU under three typical load distribution modes. A genetic algorithm based on the excellent flatness is proposed to optimize the load distribution further. In the genetic algorithm, the classification of flatness of stand 4 calculated by the developed flatness prediction model is taken as the fitness function, with the optimal reduction of 28.6%, 34.6%, 27.3%, and 18.6% proposed for stands 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The optimal solution is applied to a 1740 mm tandem cold rolling mill, which reduce the flatness classification from 10.8 IU to 3.2 IU for a 1-mm thick steel strip.

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.

Characteristics Analysis

A dynamic model of seven degree of freedom for the vertical vibration of stand rolls system in a cold tandem mill is developed by Kinematics Theory. According to the actual parameters of a factory six-roll cold rolling mill, the influence of natural frequency and modes for rolling process is analyzed. It finds that the third-order and the six-order natural frequency play a role key in vertical vibration system. Combined with energy distribution of each part and flexibility of the modes analysis for vertical vibration system, it can avoid resonance of rolling process and optimize the parameters of stand rolls system by adjusting structural size appropriately. The above mentioned results have provided a reference for further research on Kinematics and structural optimization of six-roll cold tandem mill.

Vibration Model

Mill chatter in tandem cold rolling mill is a major rejection to the quality and production of the strips. In most mill vibration models, either the roll mass is usually limited to vibrate in vertical direction and vertical-horizontal directions, or the multiple rolls system is simplified to a single mass system. However, the torsional chatter is also a typical type of mill chatter, and the presence of intermediate roll and backup roll will affect the overall vibration of the mill structure system. In this paper, a newly cold rolling mill vibration model coupled with the dynamic rolling processing model and nonlinear vibration model is proposed with the consideration of dynamic coupling and nonlinear characteristics of the rolling process, multiroll equilibrium, and roll movement in both vertical-horizontal-torsional directions. By using Hopf bifurcation theorem and Routh–Hurwitz determinant, the existence of the Hopf bifurcation point of the mill vibration system and bifurcation characteristics are analyzed. At last, the influence of different rolling conditions on the stability of the coupled mill system is investigated, and these results can also be used to design an optimum rolling schedule and determine the appearance of mill chatter under certain rolling conditions.
