Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine bestehende Warmbandstraße mit einem Hubbalkenofen, einem diesem nachgeordneten Reversiergerüst und ggfs. Scheren und/oder Entzunderungsvorrichtungen, sowie einer folgenden Warmbandfertigstraße zum Fertigen dünnen, austenitisch gewalzten Warmbandes.The invention relates to an existing hot strip mill with a Walking beam furnace, a reversing scaffold downstream of this and if necessary. Scissors and / or descaling devices, and a following Hot strip finishing train for the production of thin, austenitic rolled Hot strip.

Derartige Warmbandstraßen sind in großer Anzahl in Betrieb. Mit diesen Warmbandstraßen lassen sich Warmbänder mit einer Dicke von 1,5 mm, bestenfalls 1,2 mm, walzen. Hier stoßen diese Warmbandstraßen an ihre Grenzen. Eine weitere Absenkung der Walzbanddicke ist mit diesen Straßen nicht möglich. Dafür gibt es zwei Gründe: Einerseits soll die mittlere Temperatur des Bandes am Ausgang des letzten Gerüstes der Warmbandfertigstraße ca. 890° C bis 930 ° C nicht unterschreiten, um ein austenitisches Walzen zu gewährleisten. Andererseits darf die Geschwindigkeit am Ausgang des letzten Gerüstes der Warmbandfertigstraße ca. 11,0 bis 12,5 m/s nicht übersteigen, da ansonsten das Warmband auf dem Auslauf-Rollgang nicht mehr einwandfrei geführt und anschließend gehaspelt werden kann. Hinzu kommt, daß auch das Einfädeln in der Warmbandstraße bei derart hohen Geschwindigkeiten problematisch ist.Such hot strip mills are in operation in large numbers. With These hot strip mills can be used for hot strips with a thickness of Roll 1.5 mm, at best 1.2 mm. This is where these hot strip mills meet to its limits. A further reduction in the strip thickness is not possible with these roads. There are two reasons: On the one hand, the mean temperature of the strip at the exit of the last stand of the hot strip finishing mill approx. 890 ° C to 930 ° C do not fall below to guarantee an austenitic rolling. On the other hand, the speed at the exit of the last scaffolding is allowed the hot strip finishing train does not exceed approx. 11.0 to 12.5 m / s, otherwise the hot strip on the outlet roller table is not can be guided more properly and then reeled. In addition, the threading in the hot strip mill at such high speeds is problematic.

In der Vorstraße einer Warmbandstraße werden die Brammen in mehreren Walzstichen zu einem Vorband ausgewalzt. Dabei bildet sich über die Länge des Vorbandes ein Temperaturkeil aus, der wesentlich durch die Abnahmeverteilung während des Walzens und die Walzgeschwindigkeiten beeinflußt wird.The slabs are cut in several in the fore line of a hot strip mill Roll stitches rolled out to a supporting strip. It forms over the Length of the opening strip a temperature wedge, which is essentially due the decrease distribution during rolling and the rolling speeds being affected.

Zusätzlich stellt sich während des Walzvorgangs auch eine Verteilung der Bandtemeperatur über die Breite des Vorbandes ein. Dies resultiert aus größeren Abstrahlungsverlusten an den Bandkanten und durch die Kühlwirkung von Entzunderungswasser. Die Bandkanten können also wesentlich kühler sein als die Bandmitte, wobei Temperaturunterschiede zwischen Bandmitte und Bandkante in der Größenordnung von 75° C bis 125° C vorkommen können.In addition, a distribution also arises during the rolling process the strip temperature across the width of the preliminary strip. This results from larger radiation losses at the band edges and through the cooling effect of descaling water. The band edges can be significantly cooler than the middle of the belt, with temperature differences between the middle of the belt and the edge of the belt in the order of magnitude 75 ° C to 125 ° C can occur.

Damit wird regelmäßig bei den Warmwalzstraßen Vorband in die Warmbandfertigstraße eingeführt, welches an seinen Rändern zwar ein Temperaturniveau an der unteres Grenze der für das erste Walzgerüst der Warmbandfertigstraße notwendigen Temperatur aufweist, dessen Bandmittentemperatur jedoch entsprechend zu hoch liegt. Am Ausgang des letzten Gerüstes muß die Bandmittentemperatur, wie oben erwähnt, mindestens ca. 890° C bis 930 °C betragen.This means that on the hot rolling mills, preliminary strip is turned into the hot strip finishing mill introduced, which is at its edges Temperature level at the lower limit of that for the first roll stand the hot strip finishing line has the necessary temperature, the Belt center temperature is however correspondingly too high. At the exit of the last stand, the strip center temperature, as mentioned above, be at least approx. 890 ° C to 930 ° C.

Hinzu kommt, daß im Hubbalkenofen Bereiche des Einsatzgutes, welche auf dem Balken aufliegen, stärker gekühlt werden als die übrigen Bereich des Einsatzgutes, so daß durch die quer zur Walzrichtung verlaufenden Hubbalken im Einsatzgut quer zur Walzrichtung verlaufende kältere Stellen des Bandes entstehen. Diese sogenannten "skidmarks" müssen ebenfalls beim Eingang in die Warmbandfertigstraße von der Temperatur her berücksichtigt werden, so daß ggfs. die Vorbandmittentemperatur im Bereich außerhalb der skidmarks noch erheblich höher liegt als die Bandkantentemperatur im Bereich der skidmarks.In addition, areas of the material in the walking beam furnace, which lie on the beam, be cooled more than the rest Area of the input material, so that through the transverse to the rolling direction walking beam running in the feed material transverse to the rolling direction colder areas of the tape arise. These so-called "skidmarks" must also be entered at the hot strip finishing line be taken into account from the temperature, so that if necessary. the opening temperature in the area outside the skidmarks still is considerably higher than the strip edge temperature in the range of skidmarks.

Während des Walzens in der Fertigstraße verbleibt der noch nicht dem Walzprozess zugeführte Rest des Vorbandes auf dem Rollgang vor der Fertigstraße. Damit befindet sich der hintere Teil des Vorbandes beim Eintritt in den Walzprozess länger auf dem Rollgang und ist stärker abgekühlt als der Bandkopf. Um trotz dieser stetig abnehmenden Einlauftemperatur eine konstante Auslauftemperatur der Fertigstraße sicherzustellen, wird die Walzgeschwindigkeit während des Walzens stetig erhöht. Mit einem solchen Temperatur-speed-up wird der Einfluß abnehmender Einlauftemperaturen kompensiert.It does not remain during the rolling in the finishing train the rest of the pre-strip fed to the rolling process on the roller table the finishing train. This is the rear part of the opening act longer on the roller table when entering the rolling process and is cooled more than the tape head. To despite this steadily decreasing Inlet temperature a constant outlet temperature of the finishing train ensure the rolling speed during the Rolling steadily increased. With such a temperature speed-up the influence of decreasing inlet temperatures is compensated.

Zusammenfassend ist damit der Walzprozess in einer konventionellen Fertigstraße durch nicht konstante Bandtemperaturen wie folgt gekennzeichnet:

  • a) nicht konstante Vorbandtemperatur über Bandlänge
  • b) kalte Stellen (skidmarks)
  • c) nicht konstante Vorbandtemperaturen über die Bandbreite
  • d) stärkeres Abkühlen des Vorbandendes im Vergleich zum Vorbandkopf während des Walzens in der Fertigstraße
    • In summary, the rolling process in a conventional finishing train is characterized by non-constant strip temperatures as follows:
  • a) not constant pre-strip temperature over strip length
  • b) cold spots (skidmarks)
  • c) not constant pre-strip temperatures over the bandwidth
  • d) greater cooling of the end of the sliver compared to the sliver head during rolling in the finishing train

    • Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, bestehende Warmbandstraßen, mittels derer Band auf Dicken von 1,5 bis 1,2 mm herunter gewalzt werden kann so umzubauen bzw. nachzurüsten, daß die Walzbanddicke unter 1 mm abgesenkt werden kann, wobei die Nachrüstung möglichst kostengünstig ausfallen soll.The invention has for its object existing hot strip mills, by means of which tape down to thicknesses of 1.5 to 1.2 mm can be rolled to rebuild or retrofit that the strip thickness can be lowered below 1 mm, the retrofitting should be as inexpensive as possible.

    Zur Lösung der Aufgabe wird vorgeschlagen, daß zwischen dem Reversiergerüst und der Warmbandfertigstraße ein Ausgleichsofen vorgesehen wird, der durch eine Anzahl von Aufnahmeplätzen für ausgleichend beheizbare Bänder eine Gesamtheizzeit für jedes Vorband sichert, die ein mehrfaches der Walzzeit in der Warmbandfertigstraße beträgt.To solve the problem it is proposed that between the reversing frame and a compensating furnace is provided for the hot strip finishing train being compensated for by a number of admission places heatable tapes a total heating time for each support strip secures that a multiple of the rolling time in the hot strip finishing mill is.

    Mittels des Ausgleichsofens lassen sich die Temperaturen im Randbereich des Vorbandes, von Bandanfang bzw. Bandende und evt. vorhandener skidmarks ausgleichen, so daß ein Vorband mit einer homogenen Temperatur erzeugt wird, wobei die Temperatur des den Ausgleichsofen verlassenden Vorbandes auf die niedrigste für die Warmbandfertigstraße notwendige Eingangstemperatur eingestellt werden kann. In jedem Fall wird die über Länge und Breite konstante Vorbandtemperatur für absolut stationäre Prozessbedindungen in der Fertigstraße sorgen. Damit werden bestmögliche Voraussetzungen für das Walzen von Bändern mit minimalen Endbanddicken geschaffen.The temperatures in the edge area can be adjusted using the compensating oven of the opening act, from the beginning or end of the band and possibly existing Compensate skidmarks so that a supporting strip with a homogeneous Temperature is generated, the temperature of the equalization furnace leaving the preliminary strip to the lowest for the hot strip finishing train necessary input temperature can be set. In in each case the pre-strip temperature is constant over length and width for absolutely stationary process conditions in the finishing train to care. This creates the best possible conditions for rolling of tapes with minimal end tape thicknesses.

    Werden dem Ausgleichsofen Induktionsheizungen zugeordnet, so können gezielt kältere Bereiche des Bandes aufgeheizt bzw. das Temperaturniveau insgesamt beeinflußt werden. Werden Aufnahmeplätze des Ausgleichsofens zueinander parallel angeordnet, so können diese durch einfaches paralleles horizontales bzw. vertikales Verschieben zur Walzlinie zum Be- bzw. Entladen in die Walzlinie gebracht werden.If induction heaters are assigned to the compensating furnace, you can selectively heated areas of the belt or the temperature level be influenced overall. Will the Compensating furnace arranged parallel to each other, so this can by simply moving it horizontally or vertically in parallel brought to the rolling line for loading or unloading in the rolling line become.

    Werden Fähren und hintereinander angeordnete Aufnahmeplätze vorgesehen, so kann das Vorband ggfs. in einem Kreislauf in die Walzlinie eingebunden sein, wobei die eigentlichen Heizvorrichtung parallel zur Walzlinie angeordnet ist.If ferries and consecutive reception spaces are provided, this allows the support strip to enter the rolling line in one cycle be involved, with the actual heating device in parallel is arranged to the rolling line.

    Von Vorteil ist, wenn der Ausgleichsofen als Rollenherdofen ausgebildet ist, um hier sicherzustellen, daß keine skidmarks entstehen können.It is advantageous if the compensating furnace is designed as a roller hearth furnace is to make sure there are no skidmarks can.

    Soll mit der Warmbandstraße Walzband in Dicken bis zu 1,5 bzw. 1,2 mm heruntergewalzt werden, so läßt sich der Ausgleichsofen aus der Walzlinie ausfahren und an seiner Stelle ein konventioneller Rollgang einfahren.Should be rolled with the hot strip mill in thicknesses up to 1.5 or 1.2 mm are rolled down, the compensation furnace can be removed from the Extend the rolling line and a conventional roller table in its place drive in.

    Figur 1 zeigt einen Hubbalkenofen 1, dem sich in Walzrichtung 2 ein Reversiergerüst 3 anschließt. Im Hubbalkenofen 1 wird das Einsatzmaterial, z. B. Blöcke, aufgeheizt, und vom Ofen 1 an das Reversiergerüst 3 abgegeben, wo es in mehreren Stichen zu Vorband gewalzt wird.Figure 1 shows a walking beam furnace 1, which in the rolling direction 2 Reversing frame 3 connects. In the walking beam furnace 1, the feed, e.g. B. blocks, heated, and from the furnace 1 to the reversing frame 3 given, where it was rolled to support strip in several passes becomes.

    Dem Reversiergerüst 3 schließt sich ggfs. eine Schere 4 und eine Entzunderungsvorrichtung 5 an. Darauffolgend ist eine mehr-gerüstige Warmbandfertigstraße 6 gezeigt.A pair of scissors 4 and one may close the reversing frame 3 Descaling device 5. Following is a multi-scaffold Hot strip finishing line 6 shown.

    Figur 2 zeigt zwischen dem Reversiergerüst 3 und der Warmbandfertigstraße 6 einen Ausgleichsofen 7. Der Ausgleichsofen 7 hat mehrere Aufnahmeplätze 8 bis 8''''. Diese sind in Richtung des Pfeiles 9 verschiebbar, wobei die gezeigte Anordnung sowohl für einen im wesentlichen horizontal als auch für einen im wesentlichen vertikal angeordneten Ausgleichsofen 7 stehen soll. Vor dem Ausgleichsofen 7 ist eine Induktionsheizung 10 dargestellt.Figure 2 shows between the reversing stand 3 and the hot strip finishing train 6 a compensating furnace 7. The compensating furnace 7 has several Recording places 8 to 8 '' ''. These are in the direction of arrow 9 displaceable, the arrangement shown both for one in essentially horizontal as well as for a substantially vertical arranged compensation furnace 7 should stand. In front of the expansion furnace 7, an induction heater 10 is shown.

    Nachdem im Reversiergerüst 3 die vom Ofen 1 eingesetzten Blöcke auf Vorbanddicke heruntergewalzt worden sind, werden diese in den Ausgleichsofen 7 verbracht. Hier werden die Aufnahmeplätze 8 bis 8'''' nacheinander gefüllt und dabei schrittweise auf dem Bild in Richtung des Pfeiles 9 nach oben verschoben. Sind alle Aufnahmeplätze 8 bis 8'''', die nebeneinander oder aber übereinander liegen können, gefüllt, so werden diese komplett in Pfeilrichtung nach unten verschoben, so daß wieder der Aufnahmeplatz 8 in der Walzlinie liegt. Durch Einschieben eines neuen Vorbandes wird das auf dem Aufnahmeplatz 8 liegende, inzwischen temperaturausgeglichene Vorband in die Warmbandfertigstraße 6 geschoben. Dabei verbleibt das Ende des Vorbandes im Ausgleichsofen 7, so daß ein ungleichmäßiges Abkühlen nicht erfolgen kann. Die Aufnahmeplätze werden so verschoben, daß der Aufnahmeplatz 8' in die Walzlinie kommt und dann auch hier ein neues Vorband unter gleichzeitigen Ausschieben des in der Temperatur ausgeglichenen Vorbandes in den Ausgleichsofen 7 eingeführt wird.After in the reversing frame 3, the blocks used by the furnace 1 Roughing strip thickness have been rolled down, these are in the Equalization furnace 7 spent. Here the recording places 8 to 8 '' '' filled in succession and gradually in the picture in Moved upwards in the direction of arrow 9. Are all admission places 8 to 8 '' '', which are next to or on top of each other can be filled, so they are completely in the direction of the arrow shifted below, so that again the recording place 8 in the rolling line lies. By inserting a new supporting tape, this will be on the Recording place 8 lying, now temperature-balanced opening act pushed into the hot strip finishing line 6. The end remains of the opening strip in the equalizing furnace 7, so that an uneven Cooling cannot take place. The recording places are shifted so that the recording place 8 'comes into the rolling line and then here too a new opening act with simultaneous extension of the in the temperature-balanced strip in the equalizing furnace 7 is introduced.

    Figur 3 zeigt den Ofen 1, das Reversiergerüst 3 und die Warmbandfertigstraße 6. Weiterhin sind zwei Fähren 11 und 12 zu sehen, zwischen denen die hintereinander angeordneten Aufnahmeplätze 13 bis 13''' des Ausgleichsofens 7' angeordnet sind.FIG. 3 shows the furnace 1, the reversing stand 3 and the hot strip finishing train 6. Furthermore, two ferries 11 and 12 can be seen, between which the consecutively arranged recording spaces 13 to 13 '' ' of the compensating furnace 7 'are arranged.

    Nachdem der aus dem Ofen 1 kommende Block im Reversiergerüst 3 auf die notwendige Vorbanddicke im Reversierbetrieb gewalzt worden ist, wird das Vorband zur Fähre 11 zurückverbracht und hier aus der Walzlinie heraus in die Linie der Aufnahmeplätze 13 bis 13''' verfahren. Nach erfolgter Homogenisierung werden die Vorbänder nach und nach in die Fähre 12 geschoben, mittels derer sie wieder in die Walzlinie und von da aus in die Warmbandfertigstraße 6 verbracht werden. After the block coming out of the furnace 1 in the reversing frame 3 the necessary pre-strip thickness has been rolled in reverse operation, the support is brought back to ferry 11 and here from the Move the rolling line out into the line of the receiving positions 13 to 13 '' '. After the homogenization has been carried out, the pre-strips are removed and after pushed into the ferry 12, by means of which they again in the Rolling line and from there to hot strip finishing line 6 become.
