Abstract:
A roll stand arrangement for rolling wire with a finishing block arranged following the last stand of the intermediate group of a wire rolling mill and composed of fixedly connected roll stands with grooved rolls, and a skin pass block arranged following and having the same configuration as the finishing block, wherein the roll stands of the skin pass block have an oval/oval groove sequence and a subsequent round groove sequence. The sequence of grooves in the roll stands of the skin pass block is composed of two, three, four or more oval/oval successive grooves and, directly following these oval/oval successive grooves, one or two round successive grooves.
Abstract:
A method of coiling or placing bar steel or wire in coils, wherein the rolling stock is reeled from rolling heat in a basket or is placed by a coiler in the form of coils onto a conveyor and is collected at the end of the conveyor over a mandrel into a coil, wherein the rolling stock is cooled during coiling and the rolling stock is further cooled after the coiling process or the formation of coils. Cooling of the rolling stock from rolling heat prior to coiling into the transformation range characterized by the Ar.sub.3 line or Ar.sub.1 line of the transformation time-temperature diagram corresponding to the type of steel to be cooled is extended, such that, depending on the type of steel, the rolling stock is transformed immediately after cooling prior to, during or after coiling, uniformly over the entire length and entire cross-section thereof essentially isothermally from the austenite phase into the ferrite phase or pearlite phase and, as required, into the bainite phase.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a roll stand comprising at least one roll (1) having a rotation axis (a), said roll being supported in two installed parts (2, 3) disposed in the axial end regions of the roll (1) and each having a center plane (M), wherein the roll (1) can be positioned in the direction perpendicular to the transport direction (F) of the product to be rolled by means of at least one positioning element (4). In order to be able to introduce a bending moment acting counter to the roll bending moment into the roller in a simple manner and without additional elements, according to the invention, each installed part (2, 3) is connected to a bending lever (5, 6) and the positioning element (4) is disposed such that the positioning force thereof is introduced into the bending lever (5, 6) at a location (G) removed from the center plane (M) of the installed part (2, 3), and thereby into the installed part (2, 3).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device (1) for the continuous lengthening of a metal strip (2) by traction, said device comprising, in the strip transporting direction (R), at least three S-roll units (3, 4, 5, 6, 7) each provided with at least two rolls (8, 9 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17). According to the invention, the rolls (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17) are positioned in such a way that the metal strip (2) is wound round them at a roll periphery angle (a) of more than 180°, and at least the second S-roll unit (4) in the strip transporting direction (R) comprises two rolls (10, 11) with different-sized diameters (D10, D11).
Abstract:
A method of cooling section steel, particularly sectional steel girders, from rolling heat, wherein, prior to a final air cooling, a water cooling process is carried out in such a way that section steel portions with material concentrations are cooled at outwardly projecting portions of the steel sections over a width of application and a duration of application which are variable and subject to a predetermined cooling strategy supported by a process computer to a value which is at least still slightly above the transformation temperature Ar1.
Abstract:
A roll stand with work rolls supported by a back-up roll either directly or through an intermediate roll, particularly work rolls which are axially displaceable in opposite directions, wherein at least one of the rolls of the roll stand is constructed with varying resilience over the length thereof, particularly with a greater flattening behavior in at least a portion thereof. For this purpose, at least one of the rolls has in the area between the roll neck and the outer surface of the roll at least one notch extending concentrically about the axis.
Abstract:
A continuously cast strand is cut into elongated billets having ends and the billets are run through a rolling stand. after cutting the strand into billets and before rolling the billets one of the billets is engaged in the rolling stand and a trailing end of the one billet and a leading end of another billet are enclosed in a mold with the ends longitudinally spaced. This space between the ends is filled with molten metal in contact with the ends of the billets and the molten metal is hardened to interconnect the billet ends. Then the mold is removed from around the billet ends. The molten metal is of substantially the same composition as the billets. Furthermore the one billet is advanced in a travel direction by means of the stand and the mold and the other billet are advanced synchronously with the one billet after enclosing the billet ends in the mold. The mold is removed from the billet ends before the hardened metal between the billet ends enters the rolling stand.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for hot dip coating a metal bar (1), especially a steel strip, in which the metal bar (1) is directed vertically through a container (3) accommodating the molten coating metal (2) and through a guide channel (4) mounted upstream thereof. The inventive device comprises at least two inductors (5) which are arranged on both sides of the metal bar (1) in the area of the guide channel (4) and generate an electromagnetic field for retaining the coating metal (2) inside the container (3). In order to relax the coating bath, the distance (d) between the walls (6) that delimit the guide channel (4) is not kept constant in a direction (N) extending perpendicular to the surface of the metal strip (1) in the zone (H) of the vertical extension of the guide channel (4), which is located between the bottom side (7) thereof and the bottom area (8) of the container (3).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method of a cleaning a metal strip (1). In order to improve the cleaning of the strip, according to the invention, it is provided that the metal strip (1) is first subjected to a first high-pressure cleaning (4) with at least one liquid jet in a first region (2) of a cleaning device (3), and in that the metal strip (1) thereafter is subjected to an ultrasonic cleaning (6) in a second region off the cleaning device (3), at which the metal strip (1) is displaced through a container filled with liquid. The invention further relates to a device for cleaning a metal strip.
