Abstract

Regarding each rolling mill, a rolling torque Gi before biting into a downstream stand is stored, the peripheral velocity of a most downstream stand Rn is controlled to be Gn−1=Gn−1* after biting into Rn, and a rolling torque Gn** of Rn after tension is stabilized is stored. After that, the peripheral velocity of a rolling mill Ri is controlled to be Gi=Gi* toward an upstream side, and the peripheral velocity of a rolling mill Rk at a downstream side of the rolling mill Ri is controlled to keep Gk=Gk** (k=i+1 to n) so that a rolling torque of a most upstream rolling mill R1 becomes equal to a stored G1*. Stabilization of material passage and improvement in accuracy of a product dimension are enabled by controlling tension between stands with high accuracy by using a simple control system without using table values or the like by each rolling condition even under a condition where a distance between stands is short.

Dependent claims

A rolling method of shaped steel which performs reduction between a horizontal roll side surface and a vertical roll peripheral surface by using one piece or more of rolling mill when tandem rolling is carried out in a rolling mill train formed of n-pieces of rolling mills of at least three pieces or more, the rolling method comprising:

a first control step of fixing the peripheral velocity of a rolling mill Ri of the rolling mill train after a material to be rolled is bitten into the rolling mill Ri and before the material to be rolled is bitten into a rolling mill Ri+1 positioning at a downstream side of the rolling mill Ri, and storing a rolling torque Gi of the rolling mill Ri at that time as Gi* regarding each rolling mill Ri, and
controlling the peripheral velocity of a most downstream rolling mill Rn of the rolling mill train after the material to be rolled is bitten into the rolling mill Rn so that a rolling torque Gn−1 of a rolling mill Rn−1 positioning at an upstream side of the rolling mill Rn becomes equal to Gn−1* which is stored as a rolling torque of the rolling mill Rn−1 before the material to be rolled is bitten into the rolling mill Rn;
a second control step of storing a rolling torque Gn** of the rolling mill Rn after the first control step, and
subsequently, controlling the peripheral velocity of the rolling mill Rn−1 so that a rolling torque Gn−2 of a rolling mill Rn−2 positioning at an upstream side of the rolling mill Rn−1 becomes equal to Gn−2* which is stored as a rolling torque of the rolling mill Rn−2 before the material to be rolled is bitten into the rolling mill Rn−1, and controlling the peripheral velocity of the rolling mill Rn so that a rolling torque Gn of the rolling mill Rn becomes equal to the stored rolling torque Gn**, wherein
the second control step is applied to all of the rolling mills Ri, and the peripheral velocity of each rolling mill Ri of the rolling mill train is controlled so that a rolling torque G1 of a most upstream rolling mill R1 becomes equal to G1* which is stored as a rolling torque of the rolling mill R1 before the material to be rolled is bitten into a rolling mill R2 positioning at a downstream side of the rolling mill R1,
here, i is an arbitrary integer number from one to n, and n is an integer number of three or more.

the shaped steel is produced by applying the second control step to all of the rolling mills Ri, and controlling the peripheral velocity of each rolling mill Ri of the rolling mill train so that a rolling torque G1 of a most upstream rolling mill R1 becomes equal to G1* which is stored as a rolling torque of the rolling mill R1 before the material to be rolled is bitten into a rolling mill R2 positioning at a downstream side of the rolling mill R1.
