Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for operating a rolling stand for step rolling of metal strip.
- step rolling means rolling the metal strip with different thicknesses in individual sections of the metal strip.
- Such methods for step rolling of metal strip are basically known in the prior art, such. B. from European patent application EP 1 121 990 A2.
- This patent application discloses a roll stand with work rolls which span a roll gap.
- An unwinding reel and a strip store are connected upstream of the roll stand on the inlet side for feeding metal strip with a constant starting thickness into the roll stand.
- the roll stand - seen in the direction of the material flow - is followed by a strip store and a take-up reel.
- the take-up reel is adjusted to the average value of the speed at which the metal strip runs out of the roll stand, taking into account the changed coil diameter. In this way, as much strip is wound onto the reel as the strip leaves the roll gap.
- the at least one reel unit in the tape storage on the outlet side which is, for example, a dancer roll, is force-controlled, so that a desired tape tension is present.
- This function of the tape storage on the outlet side as an actuator for regulating the tape pull on the outlet side has the disadvantage that the position of the roller unit or the dancer roller is fundamentally indefinite due to the aforementioned force control.
- This indeterminacy of the position of the roller unit in connection with the fast running metal strip leads to instabilities.
- the tape storage during its operation, possibly also in connection with the take-up reel can be regarded as a spring-mass system, which during operation is in the area of its Resonance frequency tends to an uncontrolled rocking.
- the desired regulation of the strip tension on the outlet side only works suboptimally with the aid of the outlet side belt store as a force-controlled actuator.
- the invention is based on the object of developing a known method for operating a rolling stand for step rolling of metal strip in such a way that the strip tension on the outlet side can be kept sufficiently constant even with rapid changes in the size of the roll gap and resulting rapid changes in thickness in the rolled metal strip.
- This object is achieved by the method claimed in claim 1. Accordingly, the outlet-side strip tension of the metal strip with the help of Winding reel as an actuator is regulated to a predetermined exit-side target strip tension and additionally - overlapping - the position of the at least one roller unit of the exit-side ribbon store is regulated to target positions Psoii v, Psoii n individually specified for the leading and the subsequent section of the metal strip.
- step rolling means rolling a coherent metal strip with different thicknesses in individual sections. In particular in a trailing section of the metal strip, the thickness is different than in an adjacent leading section of the metal strip. The difference between the thicknesses is Ah.
- step rolling the term “flexible rolling” is used synonymously.
- the claimed regulation of the strip tension with the aid of the winding reel as an actuator forms the basis for keeping the strip tension on the outlet side constant.
- This regulation is well suited for keeping the strip tension constant if the thickness of the metal strip in the outlet of the roll stand does not change or only changes comparatively slowly.
- comparatively slow means that a change in the strip tension resulting therefrom can be compensated for in spite of the large inertia of the winding reel.
- the said regulation of the strip tension with the help of the winding reel is superimposed on a position control of the reel unit in the strip storage on the outlet side.
- the reel unit in the strip storage on the outlet side has a much lower mass inertia than the take-up reel and can therefore react very flexibly, ie very quickly to changes in the strip tension that occur more frequently, as they result from rapid changes in the thickness of the metal strip.
- the claimed position control of the roller unit of the tape storage on the outlet side has the advantage that the Position of the roller unit is fixed during the control in the form of target positions. With this fixed specification of the target positions, the respective strip tension is also permanently set.
- the claimed position control of the roller unit offers the advantage of greater stability of the strip tension on the outlet side even when the roll gap or the thickness of the metal strip changes dynamically.
- the necessary change in the desired position of the roll unit resulting from the predetermined thickness difference is calculated in advance in a process model for step rolling, preferably before or during the thickness difference is realized by a change in the roll gap between the work rolls of the roll stand.
- the roller unit can be set to its new changed target position very early or can be precontrolled. This is preferably done at the latest as soon as the size of the roll gap is changed by the difference in thickness Ah.
- This feedforward control according to the invention offers the advantage that the required change in the position of the roller unit does not take place later than the change in thickness, as a result of which an instability of the strip tension which otherwise occurs temporarily in the meantime can be effectively prevented.
- the metal strip fed to the roll stand on the inlet side preferably has a constant initial thickness.
- Figure 1 shows a rolling mill with a rolling stand for step rolling of metal strip
- FIG. 2 shows a detailed view of FIG. 1 to explain the method according to the invention.
- Figure 3 is an illustration of the changed target position of the
- FIG. 1 shows a rolling installation for the step rolling of metal strip 200.
- This installation comprises a rolling stand 100 with work rolls 105, which span a roll gap.
- the size of the roll gap is variable during step rolling to introduce differences in thickness Ah into the metal strip.
- a leading section 220 of the metal strip then has a different thickness than a subsequent section 210 of the metal strip 200.
- the difference in thickness is Ahi; see Figure 2.
- the metal strip preferably with a constant initial thickness ho, is provided by a decoiler 80 on the inlet side of the roll stand 100.
- the then rolled metal strip 200 first passes through an outlet-side band store 110 before it is wound up into a coil using an outlet-side winding reel. Due to changes in the size of the roll gap during rolling, the metal strip wound into the coil has different thicknesses in different sections.
- the method according to the invention aims in particular to keep the strip tension on the outlet side of the roll stand 100 constant even in the event of rapid changes in the thickness of the metal strip, such as occur in step rolling.
- the take-up reel 120 is used as an actuator for a strip tension control, in which the exit-side strip tension is regulated to a predetermined exit-side target strip tension.
- the strip tension is proportional to a tensile force acting on the metal strip in the longitudinal direction of the metal strip.
- the regulation of the constant target strip tension can be realized, for example, by changing the target torque of the winding reel in a time-dependent manner in accordance with the radius of the coil, which continuously increases when the coil is wound.
- the claimed control for a constant target-side strip tension on the outlet side can be realized by a suitable regulation of the torque of the outlet reel, the target torque to be provided then having to be changed as a function of the coil radius changing over time.
- the said regulation of the constant strip tension corresponds to a regulation of an average value of the speed of the metal strip at the exit of the roll stand.
- the said regulation of the strip tension with the aid of the winding reel enables rapid position control for the roller unit 114 of the outlet-side tape storage 110 superimposed.
- This position control provides that for each section i of the metal strip with a different or individual thickness, the roller unit in the strip storage on the outlet side is regulated to an individually predetermined target position. The need for setting these individual target positions for the sections of the metal strip of different thicknesses is explained in more detail below, in particular with reference to FIG. 2.
- the metal strip 200 runs into the roll gap between the work rolls 105 of the roll stand 100 with an initial thickness ho.
- the metal strip 200 first experiences a reduction in thickness by a difference in thickness Ah, as shown in FIG.
- This reduction in thickness Ahi of the metal strip on the outlet side of the roll stand 100 leads to a change in the outlet speed Vex i of the metal strip from the roll stand by an amount AVex i in the leading section 220 of the metal strip, in particular compared to the circumferential speed VU of the work rolls 105 des assumed to be a constant Roll stand 100.
- the change in the output speed AVex i depends on a large number of parameters which are not finally listed in the following physical function.
- AVi f (ho, Ahi, h: coefficient of friction in the roll gap, kf: flow curve of the material to be rolled, roughness, diameter and circumferential speed VU of the work rolls, degree of lubrication in the roll gap, temperature, roughness of the Metal belt, tensile force FZug i on a metal belt at the exit of the roll stand in front of the strip storage on the outlet side, tensile force Fzug Hi on the metal belt at the outlet of the strip storage on the outlet side, etc.).
- the change in the output speed AVex i is typically calculated in advance by a process model based on initialized values for the individual parameters.
- the initialized values are often only estimates or empirical values, because the values of many of the parameters are not exactly known or reproducible. During the execution of the rolling process, it is therefore advisable to observe the individual parameters with the aid of an observer, ie to record them using measurement technology, and to compare their observed or measured values with the values currently used in the process model. If a deviation of individual parameter values is detected, it is then advisable to adapt the process model in order to continuously improve it.
- the total speed Vex i of the metal strip at the outlet of the roll stand in the transport direction of the metal strip in front of the strip storage 110 on the outlet side is calculated as follows:
- Vex i VU + AVex i
- This change in length AS i must be compensated in the strip storage 1 10 on the exit side, so that the object of the invention is achieved and the change in length has no negative influence on the constancy of the strip tension on the exit side of the roll stand.
- the present invention provides to calculate from this calculated change in length Asi a required change in the desired position Api of the reel unit in the outfeed belt store 110 in such a way that said change in length As in the belt store is preferably completely compensated for.
- the change in the target position Api of the roller unit is shown as an example.
- the said change in the target position Api corresponds, for example, in rough approximation to half the change in length Asi of the metal strip, but in addition, angular relationships and the length sections of the metal strip guided in the outlet-side strip store must also be taken into account.
- the change in the target position Ap i of the roller unit takes place in the context of a position control or position control which is superimposed on the traditional strip tension control of the metal strip on the outlet side of the roll stand.
- the roller unit has only a significantly lower mass and inertia compared to the take-up reel, especially if it carries the metal strip wound into a coil. Therefore, the reel unit or the strip storage device can advantageously react much more quickly to rapid changes in length of the metal strip, such as occur in particular in step rolling, than the much slower winding reel.
- the changes in length are proportional to changes in the strip tension according to the following proportionality relationship:
- the position-controlled strip store according to the invention compensates for the fluctuations in the discharge side shown in FIG Belt speed Vex i around said mean value VHi. In this way, the object according to the invention, namely to keep the exit-side strip tension constant even with highly dynamic changes in the roll gap and thus the thickness of the exit-side strip, is ensured.
