Resumo

Developments in bar and rod mill equipment and mill layout designs continue to provide rolling mill operators with new ways to improve productivity and product quality. Advanced rolling equipment such as the Reducing/Sizing Mill, now being applied to both rod and bar mill configurations, enables significant improvements in mill utilization, while simultaneously enhancing the size tolerance of the finished product and providing the capability to do thermo mechanical rolling for metallurgical advantages. Other developments in the rolling line, such as high speed guides, new water box cooling nozzles, high speed shears and intelligent pinch rolls and new laying head features provide additional operational improvements. Handling of the finished rod products after rolling through to shipping has also benefited from equipment developments, such as ring distributors, coil handling systems and coil compactors. For bar mills, new cooling bed designs, along with stackers, bundlers and tiers provide for reliable operations with improvements in productivity.
