Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a hot-rolled steel strip in coils or in sheets from a molten steel in a continuous production process with continuous passage through a combined casting and rolling plant and a combined casting and rolling plant for performing the method.
  • a process of this type comprises the following process steps: A steel strand is formed from liquid steel by continuous casting in a continuous casting mold of a continuous casting plant. In a subsequent first group of rolling mills, this cast steel strand is roll formed into a pre-rolled hot strip, and in a second set of rolling mills, this rough rolled hot strip is finish rolled into a hot rolled steel strip having the final desired dimensions and material properties. Between the first group of rolling stands and the second group of rolling stands, the pre-rolled hot strip was set to rolling temperature in a temperature adjuster to achieve favorable conditions for finish rolling. After finish rolling, the hot rolled steel strip passes through a cooling section and is wound into coils or cut into sheets.
  • the prior art discloses, in many variants, methods and arrangements of production equipment for producing a hot-rolled steel strip starting from the liquid phase, which can be assigned to a few basic types of process.
  • liquid steel is cast on a continuous casting machine into a continuous steel strand and cut into slabs with a casting thickness of more than 120 mm or into thin slabs with a casting thickness between 40 mm and 120 mm. Subsequently or with a production-related time interruption these precursors become rolled after tempera- ture equalization or basic reheating to rolling temperature in rolling mills to steel strip of specified target thickness. Usually this is a single- or multi-frame roughing and a multi-stand finishing train used.
  • thermoforming quality in which in the continuous casting mold of a continuous casting a steel strand is cast with a casting thickness of less than 100 mm.
  • This cast steel strand is rolled after carrying out a descaling in a multi-stand Vor Identification at least to a winding tape thickness and after passing through an inductively heated furnace in which a non-oxidizing inert gas atmosphere maintained and in which the pre-rolled hot strip is heated to a temperature in the austenite Bound wound and stored in a cache. After rewinding the bundle, the pre-rolled hot strip is fed to a finishing train and rolled in the ferritic microstructure to a final product.
  • the rolling speed in the finishing train can be product-specifically adjusted by decoupling from the caster.
  • the winding and unwinding of the pre-rolled steel strip into bundles and their intermediate storage result in considerably greater investment costs than in a continuous strip pass.
  • a decoupled production process in which at least the rolling speed in the finishing train can be set independently of the casting speed in the continuous casting plant is absolutely necessary.
  • this decoupling can be made equally and leads to the disadvantages described.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to avoid the disadvantages of the known prior art and a method for producing a hot-rolled steel strip and a combined casting and rolling plant for carrying out this method with a continuous and preferably uninterrupted strip pass from the continuous casting mold to the passage through
  • a minimization of the additional energy input is achieved in the hot strip.
  • the object of the invention is to minimize the investment costs for the combined casting and rolling plant according to the invention and to reduce the operating costs for the production of the rolled steel strip, in particular the energy costs for the additional strip heating.
  • Another object of the present invention is to increase the flexibility of the proposed production process and the combined caster and mill in terms of the potential production of hot rolled steel strip in a wide range of steel grades.
  • the object underlying the invention is achieved by a method of the type described above in that the pre-rolled hot strip is descaled immediately before entering the Tempertureinstell insightful, the pre-rolled hot strip is kept in the temperature setting in a protective gas atmosphere and the pre-rolled hot strip after passing through the temperature adjustment is immediately roll formed in the second group of rolling mills.
  • the hot strip is kept in a protective gas atmosphere after descaling within the temperature adjustment, a further scaling process is largely avoided during heating of the hot strip to rolling temperature, but at least kept in a range that causes no loss of quality on the hot strip surface in the subsequent rolling process, so that an additional Descaling immediately before entry into the rolling stand is not necessary.
  • the sequence of the method steps according to the invention ensures that the hot-rolled strip temperature set in the temperature setting device is essentially maintained until entry into the first deformation stage of the second group of rolling stands, and heating of the hot strip to a temperature above the rolling temperature is no longer necessary.
  • the hot strip temperature can be kept lower by up to 80 ° C than in conventional methods with a belt descaling immediately before the roll stand.
  • the temperature adjuster During the heating of the rough-rolled hot strip to rolling temperature and the temperature compensation in the hot strip this is maintained in the temperature adjuster in an inert inert gas atmosphere having an oxygen content of less than 10.0 vol .-%.
  • the oxygen content is less than 2.0% by volume.
  • the protective gas atmosphere consists of nitrogen.
  • the pre-rolled hot strip may be maintained in the temperature adjuster during heating to rolling temperature in a reducing inert gas atmosphere.
  • the oxygen flowing into the protective gas chamber surrounding the temperature adjusting device is occasionally bound by the inlet or outlet openings and scaling at the surface of the strip is avoided.
  • the pre-rolled hot strip is set in the temperature adjuster to a predetermined roll entry temperature.
  • Optimal conditions for the rolling operation in the second group of rolling mills are given when the pre-rolled hot strip is set in the temperature adjuster depending on the current casting speed to a roll inlet temperature, which allows a final rolling temperature in the last stage of deformation of the second group of rolling mills, which in the austenitic Microstructure of the hot strip is.
  • the degree of reduction of the strip thickness in the first group of rolling stands is expediently taken into account.
  • the pre-rolled hot strip is expediently descaled with water jets at a jet pressure between 200 bar and 450 bar immediately before it enters the temperature setting device.
  • rotating, obliquely directed against the surface of the belt water jets are used from a Rotorentzu substantials insightful.
  • the described method can be used particularly advantageously if a steel strand having a steel strand thickness between 50 and 150 mm is cast in the continuous casting mold, then the cast steel strand in a first group of rolling stands to a pre-rolled hot strip having a hot strip thickness between 6.0 and 30 mm The hot rolled strip is then thermoformed in a second group of rolling stands to a hot rolled steel strip having a final steel strip thickness between 0.6 and 5.0 mm.
  • the casting thickness at the outlet from the continuous casting mold essentially determines the number of downstream rolling stands.
  • the roll forming of this cast steel strand is carried out in the first group of rolling stands by at least one rolling stand, preferably by three successive rolling stands.
  • the hot-forming of the pre-rolled hot strip in the second group of rolling stands is carried out by at least two, preferably by three to five successive rolling stands.
  • the pre-rolled hot strip is transversely divided between the first group of rolling stands and the descaling device.
  • the hot working of the cast steel strand in the first group of rolling stands is coupled to the casting process and the further hot working in the second group of rolling stands is decoupled from the casting process and thus can be carried out uninfluenced by this.
  • a combined casting and rolling plant for carrying out the process according to the invention comprises a continuous casting plant with a continuous casting mold for producing a cast steel strand, a first group of rolling stands for roll forming the cast steel strand into a pre-rolled hot strip, a second group of rolling stands for roll forming the rough rolled hot strip into one hot rolled steel strip, a temperature adjuster between the first group of rolling stands and the second group of rolling stands, and a belt coiler for winding the hot rolled steel strip into coils or a dicing device for cutting the hot rolled steel strip into sheets.
  • a Bogenstrangg intelligent fabric is used with an oscillating continuous casting mold.
  • the combined casting and rolling plant is characterized in that the temperature adjusting is arranged in a closed protective gas chamber, which is equipped with inlet and outlet openings for the pre-rolled hot strip and supply lines for a protective gas that descaling the protective gas chamber immediately is upstream and that the second group of rolling stands directly adjoins the protective gas chamber.
  • This arrangement ensures that no relevant scaling of the steel strip and on the transport of the steel strip from the exit from the protective gas chamber to the entrance to the first downstream rolling stand on the transport of the steel strip from entry into the protective gas chamber to the entrance to the first downstream mill relevant temperature loss occurs.
  • the temperature setting device is preferably designed as an induction heating device, since this allows for increased strip edge heating and possibly a zone-dependent different heating of the steel strip within its short cycle time. Furthermore, such an inductive heating device allows a very compact design of the temperature adjusting device, whereby the construction and operation of the protective gas chamber is cost-effective.
