Resumo

This paper examines the application of hot rolling lubricant to a single stand vertical breakdown mill and a 3-stand sizing mill producing seamless Oil Country Tubular Goods. Prior to the program currently in place, there was no hot rolling lubrication program on either mill. The mill survey performed describes the status of operations prior to introduction of the rolling lubricant. From the mill survey conducted, specific areas for enhanced performance and operational targets were identified. The areas highlighted through the survey were all capable of being enhanced with roll lubrication. The next section of the paper outlines the application of the hot rolling lubricant. This description includes equipment engineering and lubricant application. It then discusses measurement of performance through quantitative results and the subsequent benefits the mill achieved. Finally, the paper identifies continuous improvement efforts aimed at enhancing lubricant effectiveness and production efficiencies.
