- concrete embodiments or selection criteria for the actuator can not be taken from the disclosure.
- the object of the invention is to provide a method and a hydraulic
- Roller device having device for suppressing vibrations in a rolling plant to create, with which in particular 3-octave oscillations effectively suppressed and thereby the quality of the rolling stock and / or the productivity of the rolling mill can be improved.
- a method of the type mentioned in which the manipulated variable is fed to an electro-hydraulic actuator and at least one hydraulic actuator of the roller adjustment is acted upon by this actuator, wherein the electro-hydraulic actuator has a nominal flow> 50 l / min and at least part of the frequency response at frequencies f> 80 Hz is characterized by a magnitude decrease ⁇ 3 dB and in In this frequency range the phase drop ⁇ satisfies the conditions / ⁇ 19 • ⁇ + 3.1 - 10 6 - ⁇ 4 and ⁇ ⁇ 90 °.
- an electro-hydraulic actuator is an electrically, for example by a 4 to 20 mA current signal, controllable hydraulic valve, for example, a continuous, single or multi-stage control, proportional or servovalve understood.
- hydraulic valves have non-linear behavior, e.g. in the flow characteristic, the dynamic behavior of valves can be well characterized by the frequency response.
- the frequency response is thus suitable to indicate the suitability of a valve for specific applications in terms of dynamic behavior.
- the determination of the frequency response, ie. of the phase and magnitude steps, of continuous valves, is known to those skilled in the art e.g. out
- an amount decrease of ⁇ 3 dB means that the magnitude response has a value of> -3 dB; a positive value of the amount decrease thus leads to a weakening of the amplitude of the output signal.
- Analog is a phase drop of, for example, ⁇ 45 ° to understand that the phase response has a value> -45 °, ie. the output signal lags the input signal by ⁇ 45 ° (LAG behavior). Since the frequency response depends on various operating parameters, the values given for the phase drop and the absolute value drop are ⁇ 50%, preferably 85% (0% corresponds to an uncontrolled, ie closed, valve; ie, fully opened valve) and a system pressure of 70% of the rated pressure of the valve.
- the frequency response does not necessarily have to be determined experimentally, because the Frequency response for many valves already apparent from the data sheets.
- the amount transaction ie. the amplification factor between input and output signal, typically given in the logarithmic decibel (short dB) and the phase response, ie. the phase difference between input and output, in degrees °.
- This notation is also known, for example from Backe, but of course also information in other units is possible.
- the definition of the nominal flow rate or nominal flow rate is known from chapter 3.6.3 Nominal flow rate from jaw.
- the nominal flow rate is determined at a pressure difference of 70 bar with fully actuated valve spool.
- the values for the phase loss ⁇ in ° are to be determined from a numerical equation, whereby the frequency f is to be used in Hz.
- the inventive method can be performed if at least a part of the frequency response of the electro-hydraulic actuator at frequencies f> 80 Hz, preferably 200> f> 80 Hz, characterized by a magnitude decrease ⁇ 3 dB and in this
- Occurring vibrations are advantageously detected particularly quickly or suppressed in a particularly rapid manner when a permanently measured variable with a sampling time ⁇ 1 ms, preferably ⁇ 0.2 ms, a controller is supplied.
- a further advantageous embodiment of the method is that the difference of the accelerations between the value on the piston rod and the value on the cylinder housing of a hydraulic actuator of the roller adjustment is used as a permanently measured variable.
- a permanently measured variable is filtered by means of one or more bandpass filters, preferably by bandpass filters higher than the second order.
- the controller determines the manipulated variable, taking into account a mathematical control law and a submodel, which characterizes the system state or the system behavior and preferably contains a hydraulic and / or mechanical and / or rolling force model.
- this controller ensures that the rolling mill shows the desired, predetermined by the manipulated variable, behavior largely independent of the respective operating point. Since the frequency response of each real actuator-particularly strong, of course, at higher frequencies-shows a phase drop, it is advantageous that the manipulated variable fed to a lead / lag member and thereby the phase position of the manipulated variable is changed. By means of a lead / lag member, it is possible to change the phase position of a signal, in the specific case of the manipulated variable signal, and thus compensate for the phase shift caused by the actuator at least partially or even completely.
- the manipulated variable of the controller for suppressing vibrations of another manipulated variable, such as a roll gap control, additively superimposed and optionally supplied to a electro-hydraulic actuator after a phase change and / or a non-linear compensation.
- the efficiency of the method according to the invention can be further increased if the supply pressure and / or the control pressure and / or the tank pressure at the electro-hydraulic actuator is stabilized by means of hydraulic accumulators.
- the response time of the actuator is shortened or achieved a uniform response of the actuator largely independent of transient pressure fluctuations.
- the electrohydraulic actuator In rolling mills with high rolling forces, it is advantageous for the electrohydraulic actuator to have a nominal flow rate> 100 l / min, preferably> 200 l / min. This makes it possible, with an actuator and high flow rates for controlling one or more actuators
- the nominal flow rate is determined at a pressure drop of 70 bar.
- the size of the electrohydraulic actuator is selected via the inequality Q Nom > 1592 -V Cyl , wherein the cylinder volume in m 3 is to be used in this numerical equation and the nominal volume flow Q.Nom in l / min results.
- an electrically controlled hydraulic valve to which the manipulated variable can be fed, and at least one hydraulic cylinder of the roller adjustment, on the at least one roller of the set of rollers can be acted upon the hydraulic valve has a nominal flow> 50 l / min and at least part of the frequency response at frequencies f> 80 Hz has a magnitude drop ⁇ 3 dB and in this frequency range, the phase drop ⁇ the conditions f> l9 - ⁇ [ ⁇ + 3, l ⁇ Q- 6 - ⁇ 4 and ⁇ ⁇ 90 ° is sufficient.
- the device for suppressing vibrations is performed when at least part of the frequency response of the hydraulic valve at frequencies> 80 Hz, preferably 200>f> 80 Hz, a Amount drop ⁇ 3 dB and in this frequency range, the phase drop ⁇ the conditions / ⁇ 19 • tf ⁇ + 3.1 • 1 (T 6 • ⁇ 4 , preferably f ⁇ 23 - lß + 3, l - 1 (T 6 • ⁇ 4 , particularly preferably f ⁇ 27 - ⁇ ß + 3, l - 1 (T 6 • ⁇ 4 , and ⁇ ⁇ 90 ° is sufficient.
- a measuring device is designed as an acceleration, pressure or force sensor.
- the measuring devices are connected to the digital controller, for example, via cable or fieldbus.
- Measuring device has two acceleration sensors, wherein a sensor with the piston rod and a sensor with the cylinder housing of a hydraulic cylinder of the roller adjustment is connected. It is advantageous that the measuring axis of an acceleration sensor is arranged parallel to the Anstellcardi a hydraulic cylinder of the roll adjustment.
- a further improvement of the dynamic properties of the device according to the invention can be achieved if a supply line and / or a control line and / or a tank line to the hydraulic valve has a hydraulic accumulator for pressure stabilization.
- the hydraulic valve has a nominal flow rate> 100 l / min, preferably> 200 l / min.
- the electro-hydraulic actuator has a nominal flow rate of Q Nem > 1592 -V 2 ⁇ , in turn, the cylinder volume V Zy ⁇ in m 3 is used and the nominal flow rate Q.Nenn in l / min results.
- Particularly advantageous dynamic properties of the device can be achieved if a hydraulic valve with a hydraulic cylinder of the roll adjustment forms an assembly or the hydraulic valve is in the immediate vicinity of the hydraulic cylinder.
