Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for minimizing thickened ends when rolling pipes in a stretch-reducing mill by changing the torque of individual driven roll stands over time when the pipe start or end passes through the stretch-reducing mill, so that the pipe ends are rolled with greater than the stationary ratios of the roll speed become.
- the reason for the lower stretching of the pipe ends compared to the pipe middle part is that the roller speed ratios designed for the stationary operating state are generally not large enough to build up physically maximum tensile stresses at the pipe ends.
- the pipe ends have a larger wall thickness than the pipe middle part, which is rolled towards the end. If this wall thickness exceeds the permissible tolerance limit, these end sections must be scooped from the finished pipe.
- a measure of the size of the increase in wall thickness at the pipe ends is the difference between those acting in the stationary and those in the non-steady state
- end losses can be kept small if, by means of targeted changes in the drive motor speeds of the stretch-reducing mill, tension and deformation states are set at the pipe ends that are close to the stationary forming conditions. If in the run-in and run-out phase of the rolling process the tensile stress acting on the pipe ends is increased by increasing the speed ratios and thus counteracting the increase in the wall thickness beyond the tolerance measure, the material losses caused by end thickening can be reduced.
- the tensile stress advances are calculated in such a way that a maximum possible tensile stress is determined, whereby care must be taken to ensure that a pipe section which has not yet thickened is not subjected to higher tensile stresses than the stationary ones, because otherwise the pipe wall thicknesses produced under stationary forming conditions fell below can be.
- Speed ratios can be set.
- the proposal of the invention sets a targeted thickening of the wall due to the reduced speed ratios compared to the stationary rolling condition, i.e. on the one hand the increase in tensile stress is localized and better adapted to the area of the wall thickening and on the other hand a possible inadmissible wall thinning in the area between the thickened pipe end and the good pipe is compensated again.
- impermissible wall thinning can be avoided and thus even higher speed ratios can be set, so that the thickened ends can be shortened.
- the method according to the invention can be used both for group superimposition drives and for individual drives, there is a particular advantage that the disadvantage of the electric single drive, that at the front end of the pipe due to a drop in speed due to shock loading, can cause an increased loss of ends, by means of the new speed control method being avoided with relatively simple means.
- FIG. 1 shows the roll speed curve over the pipe length
- FIG. 2 shows the tension curve over the pipe length
- FIG. 3 shows the course of the pipe wall thickness in the transition area between the good pipe and the thickened end
