Resumo

This paper introduces an innovative selective cooling design concept for advanced flatness control in cold rolling mills. The system independently adjusts the thermal profile across the strip width, featuring automatic valve testing and a quick-release mechanism for maintenance. Maintenance routines can now be organized offline from the mill stand, improving productivity and extending the lifespan of valves components. The paper emphasizes the design features and showcases the results of the first industrial application of this new concept.

 

THIS PAPER INTRODUCES AN INNOVATIVE SELECTIVE COOLING DESIGN CONCEPT FOR ADVANCED FLATNESS CONTROL IN COLD ROLLING MILLS. THE SYSTEM INDEPENDENTLY ADJUSTS THE THERMAL PROFILE ACROSS THE STRIP WIDTH, FEATURING AUTOMATIC VALVE TESTING AND A QUICK-RELEASE MECHANISM FOR MAINTENANCE. MAINTENANCE ROUTINES CAN NOW BE ORGANIZED OFFLINE FROM THE MILL STAND, IMPROVING PRODUCTIVITY AND EXTENDING THE LIFESPAN OF VALVES COMPONENTS. THE PAPER EMPHASIZES THE DESIGN FEATURES AND SHOWCASES THE RESULTS OF THE FIRST INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION OF THIS NEW CONCEPT.
