An apparatus for winding up a metal strip into a coil. A frame in which a second counter-bending roller is mounted in a rotatable manner. The frame is movable with the aid of a second setting device between a coiler shaft position and a roller bed position. In the roller bed position, the second counter-bending roller alongside a first counter-bending roller acts as the roller bed roller of a roller bed which is arranged above the coiling device.

Apparatus for winding up a metal strip

A method for rolling a rolling material in a rolling mill comprising at least one roll stand. A gap height of a rolling gap arranged between working rolls of the roll stand is set to be smaller than an in-feed thickness of the rolling material before contact of the rolling material with the working rolls. At least one driven working roll of the roll stand is driven at a desired rotational speed once the rolling material has reached the rolling gap, and the driven working roll is operated at a feed-forward rotational speed deviating from the desired rotational speed, until the rolling material reaches the rolling gap.

Method for rolling a rolling material and rolling mill

A method for producing a metallic strip by continuous casting-rolling, wherein a slab is cast in a casting machine and then sent to a finishing mill located downstream, relative to the transport direction of the strip. In the event that the transport of the slab or strip comes to a complete or substantially complete standstill, the following steps are carried out: (a) cutting through the strip at a first point; (b) cutting through the strip at a second point that is 0.1-5.0 m upstream from the first point; (c) removing the cut-out piece of strip to create a gap in the strip; (d) conveying new strip material into the area of the gap from the area located upstream of the first point; and (e) cutting off pieces of the new strip material conveyed from upstream according to step (d) and removing the pieces from the transport line.

Method and device for producing a metallic strip in a continuous casting and rolling process

An apparatus () for winding-up a metal strip () into a coil (), includes a clamping pair () formed of a deflection roller () and a pressure roller () and located in front of the coil () in a material flow direction () so that the strip () is retained under tensional stress with respect to the coil () and is so bendable that the strip (), which is provided with a corresponding pre-bend, is firmly wound into a coil (). The apparatus further includes a first bending roller () pressable against the deflection roller (), and arranged in front of the clamping pair () in the material flow direction (), and a further roller () adjustable relative to the deflection roller () and arranged behind the clamping pair () in the material flow direction (), with the pressure roller () and both bending rollers () being so displaceable relative to the deflection roller () that an end region () of the strip () is additionally curved to form the pre-bend dependent on an end diameter () of the coil ().

Apparatus for and method of winding-up a metal strip, and plant for producing a metal strip windable into a coil

The invention relates to a method and a device for depositing a metal coil () on two stationary support points (--). In order to be able to deposit even metal coils that have high internal residual stress in a stable manner on the two support points, according to the invention, a third support point () is pivoted against the outer circumference of the metal coil () if needed).

Method and device for depositing a metal coil

The invention relates to a device and a method for handling a metal strip. The device comprises a coiling device () with a coiling mandrel () for winding the metal strip to form a coil () on the coiling mandrel and a coil stripper car () with supports () for receiving the coil () from the coiling mandrel and removing the coil from the coiling device (). In order to additionally secure the metal strip in the coiling device during the transfer from the coiling mandrel onto the coil stripper care and during a transport by means of the coil stripper car, a first hold-down arm () is provided for exerting a first hold-down force (F) onto the outer circumference of the coil () in order to press the coil onto the supports of the coil stripper car.

Device and method for handling a metal strip

The invention relates to a device for lateral guidance of a rolled strip transported on a roller bed, particularly a hot rolled strip in front of a winding device (), having parallel first and second side guides provided on both sides of the rolled strip, said side guides being movable toward or away from one another by adjusting means that are adjustable independently of one another; the invention is characterized in that a control device (), to which operating forces and/or positions of the side guides and/or of the rolled strip can be fed as output values in the guidance of the rolled strip, is provided for damping the periodic deviation of the rolled strip, and in that the control device () controls the positions of the side guides and/or forces that the side guides exert on the rolled strip based on the measured output values.

Device and method for lateral guidance of a rolled strip transported on a roller bed

A device and a method for horizontal casting of a metal band. The device includes a dispensing vessel for a melt and a cooled conveyor belt disposed downstream of the dispensing vessel in the casting direction running between two deflecting rollers and on which the metal band can be transported. The device further includes at least one roller that can be engaged with the metal band for profiling. Early and therefore improved influence on the profile of a metal band, that is the leader band, is thereby made possible.

The invention relates to a device and a method for depositing a metal coil () on two support points (--). In order to avoid risks, in particular instability, while depositing metal coils having high residual stress, according to the invention the risk of an unstable position of equilibrium is checked, if a change in the relative position of the two support points (--) with respect to one another is foreseeable, it is carried out such that the metal coil () comes to rest on both support points at least approximately in a stable position of equilibrium.

A device for manufacturing a metal strip has solidification section () formed as a horizontally extending conveyor element for transporting cast metal in a transport direction (F), a delivery vessel () for delivering liquid metal to a first location of the solidification section (), a delivery vessel () for delivering liquid metal to a first location of the solidification section (); and a device provided at or downstream of a second location spaced from the first location for maintaining a desired tension of a metal strip and including at least one driver () for transporting the metal.
