Abstract
The ERT-EBROS system welds consecutive billets together so that they can be rolled in an endless rolling process. This increases output, enhances the utilization of cooling bed and makes the production of customized coil weights possible, even when only small-weight billets are available. ERT-EBROS employs a dynamic flash welding process, in that all the process parameters are dynamically controlled in real time, ensuring a high quality of the joint as well as a reduction of consumed energy and material loss. The quality and reliability of the installed components limit the maintenance requirements, so that a high availability of the system is granted. Among the advantages offered by ERT-EBROS there are: metallic yield improvement, increased mill utilization, coil weight flexibility. The main technical concepts of the system and the latest installation of ERT-EBROS in the PROC are presented.
