Abstract: 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.

Abstract: In a method for winding hot-rolled strip (1), comprising —a decoiler mandrel (4), —at least one first pressing device (7), —at least one second pressing device (8), wherein the hot-rolled strip (1) is pressed from the first pressing device (7) and the second pressing device (8) toward the decoiler mandrel (4), the hot-rolled strip (1) is pushed or pulled away from the decoiler mandrel (4) between the first pressing device (7) and the second pressing device (8), thereby subjecting the hot-rolled strip (1) to a prebending step. The invention further relates to a device for winding hot-rolled strip (1).

Abstract: Disclosed is a support roll for a rolling mill, such as a plate rolling mill, flat rolling mill, or similar, comprising a jacket and a roll shaft which is embodied in several parts. The invention also relates to a method for producing a support roll.

Abstract: When rolling hot-rolled strips, different draughts per pass might occur during the rolling operation over the length of the roll gap, due to changes in the hardness of the rolling stock, to the roll gap itself or to the geometry of the incoming rolling stock. These different draughts per pass lead to lateral deviations and shifts of the rolling stock in the roll stand and to a lateral bending of the outgoing hot-rolled strip. In order to avoid these defects by intentionally influencing the geometry of the rough-rolled strip, it is proposed to interconnect in at least one roughing-down stand a dynamic positioning in the roughing-down stock (1) with fast and powerful lateral guides (8,9) arranged before and after the roughing-down stand (1), by corresponding regulation operations, in such a way that a grainy or tapering bloom (4) is shaped into a straight and taper-free roughed-down strip (5) in one or more passes, in continuous or reciprocating operation.

Abstract: Disclosed is a strip coiler for coiling a metal strip (20), comprising a coiling mandrel (21), pressing rollers (26) associated with the coiling mandrel (21), and adjustable deflection shells (28) for pressing the leading edge (24) of the metal strip (20) against the coiling mandrel (21). The disclosed strip coiler is characterized in that at least one of the deflection shells (28) has a tip (22) which is adjustable relative to the deflection shell (28).

Abstract: In the case of a drive arrangement for a rolling mill, comprising at least one drive motor (M), a main gear mechanism (HG), a pinion gear mechanism (KWG), a rolling stand (G) with working rolls (AW), and the spindles, couplings and the like which connect these components, the main gear mechanism (HG) is a single-stage one and the drive axis (AN) is spaced apart from the output axis (AB) by an upwardly directed, vertical spacing (vA).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for rolling up a metallic strip (1), in particular a steel strip, to a coil (2), the strip (1) being kept under longitudinal tension between a driver (3), consisting of at least one driver top roll (4) and at least one driver bottom roll (5), and a winding pin (6). The strip (1) is rolled up on the winding pin (6) to form the coil (2). In order to prevent the undesired opening of the wound coil in a simple manner, a bending moment (MB) is initiated in the strip, said bending moment acting perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the strip (1) and causing a plastic deformation when a defined remaining length of the strip (1) is reached. The invention also relates to a device for rolling up a metallic strip.

Abstract: A hot-rolling stand including blocks arranged in the stand windows and having hydraulic piston cylinder units provided as bending devices which are able to transfer bending forces via guide elements onto the chocks of the working rolls. For each block a double-acting hydraulic piston cylinder unit is provided whose two ends are connected with the guide elements. The guide elements have guide that engage both sides of the free ends of noses of the working roll chocks so as to permit axial movement of the working rolls.
