If the mill rolls 800,000 tons per year, it runs at an average production rate of 114.16 tons/hour. If the utilization can be improved by 1 %, the available rolling hours is 365 x 24 x 0.81 = 7096.6, creating 87.6 extra rolling hours. At 114.16 tons/hour that is an additional 10,000 tons can be rolled.

In these mills, rotation of that two rolls is made in two different directions. In this operation, the metal is passed between two rollers that rotate at the same speed but it is in the opposite direction. It is used in slabbing, plumbing, rail, plate roughing work and many other areas.
2: Three high rolling mill: It consists of a roll stand with three parallel rolls one above the other. Adjacent rolls rotates in opposite direction. So that the material may be passed between the top and the middle roll in one direction and the bottom and middle rolls in opposite one. In three high rolling mills the work piece is rolled on both ...
The working roll diameter is 500 mm. Determine the rolling load on the rolling stand if the co-efficient of friction is 0.07. Also determine the rolling torque. Solution: Example 2: A billet of area of section 150 mm x 150 mm is rolled to 120 height in a rolling mill with 600 mm roll diameter at a temperature of 1100 °C at 3m/sec.
Outline of reversing cold rolling mill and rolling method As illustrated in Figure 1, a reversing cold rolling mill is structured mainly of a mill proper, a winding machine (pay-off ree l), an entry winding machine (tension reel) and a delivery-winding machine (tension reel).
rolled, cold rolled, intermediate annealed and in most cases grinded on the surface [2]. Flatness measuring – the flatness measuring roll On the exit side of the mill the strip is bent over a segmented roll, the flatness measuring roll. This roll measures the force on each segment and in this way the flatness of the strip can be decided.

Bearings for Rolling mill Rolls. Rolling mills for rolling of steel differ in many aspects with each other. The rolling mills are of different sizes and capacities. The mills roll steel materials of different cross-sections, sizes and qualities and in material conditions which are either hot or cold.
The operation is a continuous, cold-rolling plant that produces steel sheet of unmatched quality and consistency. The operation enables the combination of five processes that take 12 days or more to perform via traditional batch methods. By welding coils end-to-end, the plant can run them continuously through these processes – pickling ...
Home > About the company > Operations and subsidiary companies > Rolling Mills. Rolling Mills. The Rolling Mills produce and supply rolled products both for domestic and foreign markets. Our Finishing lines are represented by two section-rolling mills and a wire-rod mill, which provide a wide assortment of profiles and wire rod.
The majority of cold and foil rolling operations use oil-based lubricants, although some mill systems can accommodate water-based alternatives. The base oil represents more than 90% of the total lubricant volume and acts as a solvent for the load bearing additives and a roll-cooling medium. The base oil viscosity has a significant effect on the ...
z-mill (20-hi cluster type mill) The Waterbury Farrel Sendzimir Rolling Mill is the final answer to the need for highly precise, close-tolerance rolled products. Extensive experience in the area has led to the perfecting of these hydraulically-loaded, gauge-controlled mills for …
With the completion of the new hot rolling mill, the Pesquería industrial Center has an annual production capacity of 4.4 million tons of hot-rolled products, 1.6 million tons of cold-rolled products, 830,000 tons of hot-dipped galvanized products and 120,000 tons of …
the virtual rolling function to support fault-tolerant control to improve the availability of the mill. In the initial work, as described in this paper, the application of items 1 and 3 were considered for a fully threaded stand-alone tandem cold mill. The application of item 2 for a stand-alone tandem cold mill, and the
Benefits. By joining coils prior to entering the mill, a continuous tandem cold mill results in additional benefits such as: Highest production rates. Optimized yield. Reduced roll consumption. Flexible production. Tight tolerances for strip thickness, shape, and high surface quality. Low costs for operation, maintenance, and minimum down times.
The cold rolling mill produces 120,000 tpy of aluminium coils, coming from two casting machines, with a thickness of 10 to 6 mm and which are rolled down to a minimum thickness of 0.15 mm at a max speed of 1200 m/min., with a max strip width of 2.1 meters.

Four-High: A 4-HI mill may be used for finish rolling of thin …
In the rolling process, the job is drawn through a set of rolls due to interface friction, and the compressive forces reduce the thickness of the workpiece or change in its cross-sectional area.. The types of rolls used in rolling mills are depended upon the shape, size and the gap between the rolls and their contour. Because of workability and limitations in …
Tandem cold rolling mills are named by their stand arrangement and designed as "sheet mills" if they reduce hot band to sheet gauge or "tin mills" if they roll the same incoming material to tinplate stock. A typical five stand tandem cold rolling mill is illustrated in Figure 1. Figure 1: A typical five stand tandem cold rolling mill
