TANDEM MILL
FATE OF METAL STRIP DURING ROLLING
COLD ROLLING
ROLLED COIL
ROLLING OIL HAS TO TAKE CARE OF THE ROLL PROFILE AND LOAD FOR EFFECTIVE HEAT REMUVAL AND PROVIDING MINIMUM RECEDUE
Annealing Furnace
Annealing Cycle Curve
During Annealing, the Oil component residues should evaporate leaving no marks on the strips after Skin Pass
Skin Pass Mill
Emulsion (Roll Coolant) System
Functions:
Cooling of Rolls. Lubrication between rolls and strip. Reduction in rolling load, inter Stand strip tension and roll wear Improving surface quality of the strip/ sheet Protection against corrosion
The development and introduction of new rolling processes requires better performance oils as manufacturing demands become higher.
The latest oil developments are able to simultaneously provide high lubricity and strip cleanliness as well as reduce the rolling oil consumption.
