At the global scale steel industry has faced so many ups and downs, but at present we can understand and see that this is the best time for the industry. Of course, there are lot of option available either it is about manufacturing or exporting the steel products. Diverse and wide range of products and manufacturing process are available according to the requirement in the best way. Steel industries has updated with advance technology which help them to bring the perfection in the work.
What are rolling mill process and its type?
One of steel manufacturing process to manufacture the steel product is rolling mill. Furthermore, Understand with the word “Rolling”, in which ingots and billets feed between the two rollers and reduce the cross sectional area. Rollers are placed in a line formation which required for bringing the required shape of the product. There are two type of rolling mills one is Hot rolling and another is Cold rolling. Building knowledge about the rolling mill process will help you to find the best and suitable rollers for the manufacturing and required cross section area easily as well as in bulk. Meanwhile, the main focus of using this process in steel industry to produce furnish and semi-furnished elements which has required according to their applications.
The facts that need to know during the process
Not only the hot rolling process but almost every steel manufacturing industry, these are the common facts which needs to be keep in mind during the process:
A. Must know the profile of the rollers which use for making the cross-sectional area of the product
B. The temperature of the heater must be constant so there will no effect on the mechanical, chemical and quality of the product.
C. Speed of the rollers should be constant or vary according the required product specification
D. Experience and skilled manpower must be higher for performing the job so there is no harm in quality and finish.
E. Machines, Tools, and Equipment must be error free and do maintenance over a time period.
F. Programming, sequence, and dimension must be update according the requirement before processing for the new product.
G. Proper insulation work of ducts, pipe, and electrical machines before performing the job.
H. Hazards like hit by moving billet or slip can occur during the process, so ensure the installation of all the safety equipment.
I. Must be regular check up on the gas pipeline, so no one can harm their self from the hazardous gases.
J. Job area must be clean and clear by following the house keeping plan day to day.
K. Proper packing and gasket must install while fixing the valves or flanges
These are not measure facts, but keeping in mind can save your steel industry from getting in problem.
