Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hot roughing mill installation.
  • Known hot roughing mill installations are described for example in the JP-A-53-26759 or the JP-B-61-3561.
  • the former is directed to a large-scale production facility according to the pre-characterising part of Claim 1 having a sizing press for achieving higher production efficiency and the latter to a medium-scale production facility having a coil box, i.e. a coiling device, for winding up the roughed metal strip to reduce the length of the roughing mill line.
  • a coil box i.e. a coiling device
  • the installation described in the former publication has a very long roughing mill line, whilst the latter installation does not achieve good production efficiency.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore, amongst other things, to provide an installation with a short roughing mill line and which operates at a high production efficiency.
  • a hot roughing mill installation which, in use, receives from a furnace a slab of hot metal which passes through the installation in a working direction, comprises a first roughing mill and a sizing press upstream of the roughing mill and is characterised in that the first roughing mill is a reversing roughing mill, that a coil box is provided downstream of the roughing mill which, in use, receives and coils a metal strip from the roughing mill, that edgers are provided upstream and downstream of the first roughing mill, which edgers, in use, form a thickened portion on each side of the slab and that a two-high rolling mill is located between the sizing press and the roughing mill.
  • the sizing press drafts the slab to a desired width before it passes through the roughing mill.
  • the thickened portion or "dog bone” on each side of the slab ensures that portions of reduced thickness, or "edge drops” are not created during roughing in the roughing mill.
  • the two-high rolling mill is included in the installation in order to flatten the thickened portions produced by the sizing press or edgers, should these portions be too pronounced.
  • a second reversing roughing mill may be included in the installation, downstream of the first.
  • further edgers may be incorporated immediately upstream and/or immediately downstream of the second roughing mill.
  • the drawing shows a first embodiment of the present invention in which reference numeral 1 represents a furnace for heating a slab S; and 2, a sizing press for drafting, or reducing the width of, the slab S when it has been taken out from the furnace 1.
  • Numeral 3 represents edgers upstream and downstream of the roughing mill 4 for forming a "dog bone", or thickened portion, on each side of the slab S. Because edgers are situated upstream and downstream of the roughing mill, the sides of the metal strip P can be drafted by the edger 3 immediately prior to entering the roughing mill 4, regardless of the actual direction of travel of the strip P at that time.
  • a two-high rolling mill 6 is arranged between the sizing press 2 and the upstream edger 3 so that, even if the thickened portions generated on each side of the slab S or metal strip P when it is drafted by the sizing press 2 or by the edger 3 are too big, they can be crushed by the two-high rolling mill 6.
  • Downstream of the roughing mill 4 is a coiling device, 5, specifically a coil box for winding up the roughed strip P.
  • the two-high rolling mill 6, sizing press 2, upstream edger 3, roughing mill 4, downstream edger 3 and coil box 5 are arranged on the exit side of the furnace 1 in that order in the direction D of travel of the slab.
  • the direction D is the working direction in which the slab moves; that is to say it is the direction in which the slab progresses through the installation, although it may in fact also have a reciprocating motion, and the direction of travel at any instant may not be the same as the working direction D.
  • a mill (not shown) for finishing the metal strip P is arranged downstream of the coil box 5 with respect to the direction of travel D.
  • the slab S is heated in the furnace 1 to a predetermined temperature and is then taken out of the furnace 1 and drafted to a predetermined width in the sizing press 2. Then, the slab S is reverse rolled several times in the reversing roughing mill 4 and is thereby formed into a metal strip P with the desired thickness.
  • the strip P is then wound up into a coil in the coil box 5.
  • the metal strip P is thereafter uncoiled to be sent to the finishing mill (not shown) for finishing.
  • edge drops, or portions of reduced thickness, on each side of the slab S can be created during the reverse rolling process in the roughing mill 4. This is prevented, in an installation according to the invention, by initially drafting the slab S in the edger 3 to generate dog bones, or portions of increased thickness, on the sides of the slab. Accordingly, no edge drops may be observed on the metal strip P after roughing in an installation according to the present invention.
  • the sizing press 2 is used to width-draft the slab S so that the amount of width drafting of the slab S which may be carried out can be increased in comparison with an installation not including a sizing press. Therefore, the range of widths of slab which may be cast by a continuous casting machine upstream of the installation and fed to the furnace 1 may be large. The number of different types of slab which the casting machine must produce is accordingly lowered, and as a result, the frequency with which the moulds on the casting machine must be changed is also reduced, resulting in an enhancement of the production efficiency.
  • the length of the production line from the roughing mill 4 to the finishing mill can be shortened, which leads to the installation being smaller than if the coil box were not included.
