Abstract: In a chucking device and a chucking method for a machine tool which grip a workpiece that serves as a target object to be processed by the machine tool, a first cylinder and a second cylinder are controlled based on the position of a piston of the first cylinder detected by a length measuring sensor, and the position of a piston of the second cylinder detected by a length measuring sensor. In this manner, the workpiece is gripped by respective gripping members at a predetermined position, i.e., the axial center, of a chuck main body.

Abstract: The present invention provides a finish hot rolling method for structural steels capable of realizing enhanced dimensional accuracy and a uniform microstructure, using a 2-stand 3-roll finishing mill, wherein an area reduction rate of the final finishing pass is 10 to 20% and the value of an area reduction rate of the final finishing pass divided by the corresponding area reduction rate of the pass preceding the final finishing pass is 0.7 to 1.3.

Abstract: Steel hot-rolled to the desired diameter and allowed to travel forward is quenched with cooling water to a temperature below the bainite transformation temperature chosen from within the following range:145.multidot.t/r.sup.2 +130.ltoreq.T.ltoreq.152.multidot.t/r.sup.2 +240whereT=surface temperature of the rolled steel at a point 1 m to 2 m away form the point where quenching ends (.degree.C.)t=time required by the rolled steel for travelling from the quenching ending point to the temperature measuring point (hr)r=radius of the rolled steel (m).Then, the surface area of the rolled steel is subsequently automatically recovered by the heat of the core.
