Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for producing hot wide strip, in particular from continuously cast thin slabs, in successive working steps of a rolling line having a continuous finishing train, casting strands being produced in a casting machine or casting line, possibly separated into individual thin slabs and homogenized in each case in a compensating furnace and brought to temperature and transferred from the compensating furnace, possibly with the interposition of a storage furnace and, in some cases, an extended holding furnace, to the production line with at least one working scaffold.
- the invention also relates to a plant for carrying out the method according to the invention.
- continuously cast thin slabs are used as starting material for the finishing train consisting of several stands, which for example have a thickness of less than 100 to 70 mm, preferably of about 50 mm.
- the thin slabs are regularly cut from an endless cast strand produced in a continuous casting machine, with a length that corresponds to the required coil weight for the finished hot wide strip.
- the casting speed of continuous casting machines for thin slab continuous casting is relatively low, while the drawing-in speed of an associated continuously working hot strip mill with several stands is about a factor of 2 to 4 higher. It is therefore advantageous to assign two casting machines to a continuous finishing train in such a way that thin slabs are alternately separated from each of the two endless casting strands and then each fed to the finishing train for rolling.
- DE 4234455 A1 discloses a method for rolling out hot wide strip from continuously cast thin slabs in successive steps of a rolling line having a continuous finishing train.
- the thin slabs are produced in two casting machines or two casting lines by separating them from the cast strand.
- the thin slabs are each homogenized in a compensation furnace and brought to temperature and introduced into a storage buffer of the compensation furnace and transferred from there to the rolling line.
- a thin slab is swiveled out of the casting line or moved laterally using a movable furnace part and, after a first reversal of direction, is conveyed in the opposite direction to the casting strand and introduced into a storage furnace within the rolling line.
- the thin slab is conveyed from this storage furnace after a second reversal of direction into a holding furnace downstream of the storage furnace in the direction against the rolling line and introduced from the holding furnace into the finishing train and rolled out in the finishing train to the end product.
- the sophisticated logistics are designed in such a way that all system components can be operated using their maximum performance (production capacity).
- Fig. 1 is a three-strand system with a reverse swivel ferry
- Fig. 2 shows a casting machine with three parallel furnace systems with backward swivel ferries.
- Fig. 3 shows a three-strand casting machine with three parallel furnace systems
- FIG. 4 shows a casting machine with three parallel furnace systems with a forward swivel ferry
- FIG. 1 shows a first concept variant, which is equipped as a three-strand system 1 with reverse swivel ferries 4.
- the middle casting line From the middle casting line, the thin slab 6 is fed to the scissors 12, descaling device 8, and a 6-stand finishing mill 9. Behind the last finishing stand, the water cooling section 10 is arranged, in which the hot strip is cooled down.
- FIG. 2 shows a second concept variant which has a single casting machine 2 '.
- the middle furnace system is in a production line with the rolling mill 9.
- the scissors 12 and the descaling device 8 are arranged behind the middle furnace system. This is followed by a 6-stand mill 9.
- the finished rolled hot strip is transferred from the last stand of the rolling mill to the cooling section 10, in which the strip is cooled down to the further processing temperature.
- Behind the water cooling section 10 is the reel assembly 11 with two reels with which the strip is wound into transportable coils.
- the rolling mill 9 consists of a pair of scissors 7, a descaling device 8, a 6-stand rolling mill 9 with the downstream water cooling section 10 and the two coiler systems 11 with which the finished rolled strip is wound into coils becomes.
- FIG. 4 shows the fourth concept variant with a casting machine 2 'and three furnace systems 3 "' arranged downstream of the casting machine 2 ', which are arranged in parallel.
- a pair of scissors 7 is arranged between the casting machine 2' and the furnace systems 3" ".
- the two outer furnace systems work by means of forward swiveling ferries 5 'on the middle furnace system, which - as said before - is in line with the production system, which consists of scissors 12, the descaling device 8, a 6-stand rolling mill 9 and the like downstream water cooling section 10, which is followed by the coiler 11, in which the finished strip is wound into coils.
- the overall system according to the invention for the production of hot strip from cast thin slabs, it is possible to establish both logistics for the individual components of the overall system and a logistical connection between the system components so that the steelworks or the blast furnace into the production line for casting the thin slabs and in the Production line of the rolling mill is integrated in order to significantly increase the production performance of conventional thin slab plants.
- the present invention it is possible for the first time to use the previously known electric melting furnaces and to connect a blast furnace system with the thin slab system to form a powerful unit. It is now also possible for the first time to cast and roll out other types of steel with the thin slab lines that could not be taken into account due to the use of the electric melting furnace.
