Device for selecting sets of rolls for twenty-high rolling mill

Abstract

A device, for selecting sets of rolls for twenty-high rolling mill, comprising a flat board, whereupon eccentric disks are mounted in full conformity with the positioning of the backup rolls of a rolling mill, dimensions of said disks corresponding to the dimensions of the backup rolls of the rolling mill. Secured on the board is a vertical guide member, for displacement of disks corresponding to the working roll and second intermediate idle roll, and a horizontal bar corresponding to the passline of rolling mill, with respect to which the position of the working roll is determined. In addition, there are other disks which are installed on the board in compliance with the positioning in the rolling mill of the first intermediate and second intermediate drive rolls, thus forming a two-dimensional model of the roll arrangement in the rolling mill. The dimensions of rolls are selected by varying the position of the disks corresponding to the backup rolls so as to provide the required processing gap between the working rolls of the rolling mill.
