  • HTS motor both a machine whose rotor winding is superconducting and whose stator winding is normally conducting, and a machine, so-called fully superconducting machines, in which both the rotor and the stator winding is made using superconducting material to understand.
  • the rolling stands in a rolling mill due to the spatial extent of rolling stand, gear and electric motors must comply with a minimum distance, the minimum distance of the rolling stands is due to the Size of the frame stand, of possibly necessary Eisengerüsttransport adopteden limited by electric motors or transmission.
  • rolling stands which are driven by a HTS motor, the minimum distance between immediately adjacent rolling stands and thus, for example, the unwanted cooling of the rolling stock can be reduced by reduced thermal radiation.
  • HTS motors which have a much smaller size with the same power compared to conventional electric motors.
  • HTS motors which have a much smaller size with the same power compared to conventional electric motors.
  • the use of a HTS motor in a rolling mill considerable energy savings (lower power dissipation) and because of possible reduced aggregate distances also brings cost advantages. This is particularly advantageous in cast-rolled composite systems.

  • a rolling stand can be used both in hot and cold rolling mills.
  • a rolling stand in a cold rolling mill is used to roll down hot strip to the thickness desired by the customer.
  • the rolling stand can be designed, for example, as a duo or as a quarto-rolling mill or as a hexagonal rolling mill.
  • the rolling mill is driven by a more compact HTS motor with the same power, the distances between the rolling stands can be selected smaller and the entire rolling train can be made shorter or more compact.
  • the inventors have recognized that use of an HTS motor in the rolling mill thus brings with it significant cost reductions as well as technological advantages as a result of reduced cooling of the continuous rolling stock.
  • An HTS engine has a more stable, stiff performance (e.g., small rotor angle) and also reacts faster to changes in command values than a conventional electric motor. This case occurs frequently during rolling. In comparison to a conventional electric motor, an HTS motor is thus able to be regulated more quickly, which allows an improved and / or faster puncture behavior and / or an improved ski control particularly when it is used in a rolling train. This is particularly advantageous in heavy hot rolling reversing lines. As a "ski” is an unintentional deformation of the band up or down, i. referred to perpendicular to the transport direction.

  • the rolling stand is configured such that it comprises a plurality of HTS motors, wherein each of the work rolls - preferably as described above directly or with a reduced gearbox - is mechanically connected to the shaft of one of the HTS motors. Since compared to conventional electric motors, the HTS motors with the same torque have a smaller size, eg due to a smaller stator diameter, the distance between the drive shafts of the motors can be reduced to each other.
  • the electric motors are arranged directly next to one another or locally above one another (offset from each other). According to a further embodiment, these therefore advantageously have a common cooling system.
  • an HTS motor is not only advantageous in directly driven rolling stands, such as the aforementioned twin drives, but also in a rolling mill, which according to a further embodiment comprises two work rolls, which are mechanically coupled via a branching gear, said this drive side with the shaft of one of the electric motors is coupled.

  • the stand spacing of today's hot rolling mills in conventional construction is typically more than 5.0 m to 5.5 m.
  • the rolling stock may, for example, cool down too much between the individual rolling passes or form scales on the surface.
  • additional equipment such as an induction furnace or a descaling unit be compensated.
  • the use of such additional units and their integration in the rolling mill is expensive on the one hand and resource-intensive on the other hand.
  • the spacing of the rolling stands can be reduced by the use of drive motors with superconducting windings, whereby additional aggregates, e.g. for descaling or for heating the rolling stock, can be omitted.

  • the rolling train is part of a cast-rolling composite plant for the continuous production of hot strip.
  • the processing speed of a cast-rolling composite plant is determined by the speed of the caster. Consequently, the state changes of the rolling stock occurring between the individual rolling passes, for example the cooling thereof, can not be compensated in a simple manner by increasing the rolling speed.
