Module 2 Activity No. 2

The document describes various equipment used in hot rolling mills, including reheating furnaces, scale breakers, mill stands, automatic roll changing systems, pickling lines, electrolytic cleaning lines, continuous annealing lines, temper mills, and recoiling machines. Reheating furnaces heat steel to 1200°C for rolling. Mill stands have rolls that shape the workpiece. Automatic systems change rolls without stopping production. Pickling and cleaning processes remove impurities from the metal surface. Annealing and temper mills further process the metal after rolling. Recoiling machines coil the finished product.

IV. Equipment:

Reheating furnaces are used in hot rolling mills to heat the steel to the rolling temperatures of
around 1200C which is suitable for plastic deformation of steel. The heating process in a reheating
furnace is a continuous process where the steel stock is charged at the furnace entrance, heated
in the furnace, and discharged at the furnace exit. Heat is transferred to the steel stock during its
traverse through the furnace mainly by means of convection and radiation from the burner gases
and the furnace walls.

Scale Breakers/Tension Leveler break the iron oxide


on the strip surface mechanically in order to enrich
pickling performance. This scale breaker is dry leveling
type with hydraulic quick open function.

Mill stands are the most essential equipment in the rolling mill process. A mill stand is normally
fitted with a number of rolls through which the work piece bar is passed giving it the required
cross-section. There are various designs of mill stands each having different applications to the
rolling process.

Automatic Roll Changing System work rolls, intermediate rolls and back-up rolls can be
changed while strip is in the mill. Work Rolls and Intermediate Rolls are to be changed by full
automatic mode. Rolls of all stands can be changed simultaneously, when roll diameters are
larger than certain figure without decreasing strip speed in the pickling section.

Pickling Line is a metal surface treatment used to remove impurities, such as stains, inorganic
contaminants, rust or scale from ferrous metals, copper, precious metals and aluminum alloys. A
solution called pickle liquor, which contains strong acids, is used to remove the surface impurities.

Electrolytic Cleaning Lines (ECL) enable the removal of the remaining iron fines and oil
residues from the tandem mill. Advanced ECL technology delivers outstanding strip cleanliness
before the coils reach the downstream batch annealing furnace so that perfect surface cleanness
is achieved.

Continuous annealing lines (CAL) are used to soften the material after cold rolling. Skin passing
and tension leveling. Tension leveler of a continuous annealing line.

Skin Pass/Temper Mill rolling improve the


mechanical properties and surface texture, and
improve flatness, in order to form materials such as
hot-rolled steel sheets, cold-rolled steel sheets,
stainless steel plates into final products.
