Hydraulic AWC system for Hot Rolling Mill Hydraulic AGC system for Hot Rolling Mill

Hydraulic AGC systemExcellent thickness accuracy can be achieved, from top end to tail end of the production, by providing hydraulic gap adjusting cylinders

with the AGC system on mill stands.

The hydraulic gap adjusting cylinders are located under bottom back-up roll chocks or on top back-up roll chocks. The cylinders installed

under bottom back-up roll chocks will also work for the pass-line adjustment and the ski-head control especially for the roughing mill.

The electro-mechanical servo valves precisely control the hydraulic cylinder position.

Hydraulic AWC systemExcellent width accuracy can be achieved by providing the hydraulic AWC system on the vertical edger(s), from top end to tail end of

the production.

PTJ will apply complete hydraulic cylinder operated width control system which will work as the Short Stroke Control (SS) for the top

end and tail end parts, and also work as Automatic Width Control System (AWC) for body part. The electro-mechanical servo valves

precisely control the hydraulic cylinder position.

The pair cross mill (PC mill) was developed in 1980’s

and has contributed to the achievement of high

controllability. PTJ has enhanced the PC mill and is

now supplying a 3rd generation PC mill with a mill

stabilizer, the so-called Advanced Pair Cross Mill.

The advanded PC mill is simpler to operate and

easier to maintain.

The number of the roll cross devices is reduced to

less than one-fourth of those of the 1st generation

PC mill. The advanded PC mill has the capability for

higher reduction thru the use of a mill stabilizer to

reduce mill vibration. The mill stabilizer is installed

on the entry side housing and eliminates the

clearance between the chocks and housing during

operation. This feature will reduce the task of

maintaining the entry-side housing liner to approx.

one-third that of a conventional mill.

Higher reduction rolling without mill vibration through the

combination of PC mill and mill stabilizer

simple principle of roll cross (see below)

Stable operation with the elimination of clearance between

roll chocks and housing and symmetrical roll crown control to

reduce camber and the pinching problems

Reduction of impact force at the roll bite through the mill

stabilizer, resulting in the reduction of the damage and wear

on equipment

Joining Sequence and Mechanism

Design of Super Deformation Joining Machine

The concept of the endless hot rolling was

introduced to meet demands for diverse

products of hot rolled steel sheets using a

cost-effective process compared to the

conventional batch-type process. Endless

rolling involves joining of the tail end of a

preceding bar and the head end of a following

bar after rough rolling. The repetitively joined

results in the endless rolling. This process has

the following advantages over the conventional

batch-type process:

1. Expansion of product lineup: Production of

rolling of thin and hard-to-roll materials.

2. Increase in productivity: Great reduction in

reduction of mill acceleration and

deceleration time.

3. Improvement of product quality:

Improvement in accuracy and uniformity of

4. Energy savings: Reduction of the mill acceleration and deceleration frequencies.

5. Increase of yield: Minimization of miss-rolling of thin and hard-to-roll materials: Application of tension at head and tail parts of bar.

1.

the area to be joined before overlapping.

2. The head of the following bar is partially overlapped on the

tail of the preceding bar by increasing the speed of the

following bar.

3. Both bars are joined by shearing action of the stationary

pendulum type-joining machine.

4. Crops on both sides are pushed off from the joint and

disposed.

Overview of Plant

G Steel (formerly Siam Strip Mill Public Co., Ltd.) plant in Thailand is the largest integrated hot rolled coil products manufacturer in

Southeast Asia. It comprises the three basic production processes of steelmaking, continuous casting and hot rolling mill integrated into

a close-coupled production line so called “Mini Mill.”

PTJ supplied not only the hot rolling equipment and its auxiliaries, such as water treatment plant, cranes, sub-station, etc. but also the

civil and building construction and installation for whole the production process equipment, on turn-key basis.
