Abstract

The WinLink® technology for the endless production of long products from liquid steel, links a high productivity caster with a very compact rolling line. The endless production of bars offers a significant increase of yield, bringing a large advantage to the cost-effective operation. In order to fully benefit from it, a modern rolling approach is required. Both the process equipment and rolling practices need to focus on the maximization of the mill availability. For example, quick change solutions (stands, knives, guides, rolls/rings) and usage of rolling carbide rings are to be considered, while the duration of the rolling campaigns must be optimized. Due to the continuity of the rolling operation with the casting, the automation philosophy is reversed, and it must include the feature of under-load automatic gap control. WinLink® by Siemens benefits from the experience acquired in the industrial operation of the Arvedi ESP (endless strip production).
