Further, every time lengthening coefficient of described three-high mill is 1.0~1.6;
Further: the lengthening coefficient of described last three-high mill is 1.0~1.3.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows: the production method of technology arrangement of the present invention arranges high strength three-high mill by all fronts, and rolling power is large, can realize single pass and depress greatly, for controlled rolling and controlled cooling, produce fine grain reinforcing bar and provide safeguard; In addition, many places temperature controlled water tank is set completely, by media such as water, gas, rolled piece is carried out to online temperature control cooling, reasonably rolled piece temperature window coordinates the large soft reduction process of milling train in addition, therefore can realize the orderly production of high strength grade Novel threaded reinforcing bar.
Other advantages of the present invention, target and feature will be set forth to a certain extent in the following description, and to a certain extent, based on will be apparent to those skilled in the art to investigating below, or can be instructed from the practice of the present invention.Target of the present invention and other advantages can be realized and be obtained by description below.
Accompanying drawing explanation
In order to make the object, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the present invention is described in further detail, wherein:
Fig. 1 is three side Ribbed Bar sectional schematic diagrams;
Fig. 2 is the production technology layout drawing of preferred embodiment of the present invention.
The specific embodiment
Hereinafter with reference to accompanying drawing, the preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail.Should be appreciated that preferred embodiment is only for the present invention is described, rather than in order to limit the scope of the invention.
As shown in the figure, the production technology of a kind of three side spiral with ribbing is arranged, comprise the pretreatment procedure 1, roughing unit 3, the first shearing equipment 5, intermediate mill 6, the second shearing equipment 8, mm finishing mill unit 9, the 3rd shearing equipment 11, reducing sizing mill group 12, the 4th shearing equipment 14 and the postprocessing working procedures 15 that set gradually, described roughing unit, intermediate mill, mm finishing mill unit and reducing sizing mill group all adopt high strength three-high mill, are carved with the crescent rib groove matching with three side Ribbed Bar surface flank shapes on the roll surface of described last three-high mill of mm finishing mill unit.
