Abstract: The invention relates to a pipe rolling plant 10 comprising a rotary piercer 20, a treatment station 30 and a main rolling mill 40. The rotary piercer and the treatment station are arranged so that the pierced blank 51 leaving them is arranged with the irregular tail 511 facing the main rolling mill 40 and with the regular head 510 facing the mandrel 41. The invention also relates to a rolling mill 40 comprising a plurality of rolling stations 43, each station comprising a plurality of rolling rolls 42, the radial position h of which is adjustable. The rolling mill also comprises a control circuit for calculating and/or measuring the distance d between the axes of rotation r of the rolls and the trailing edge 520 of the pipe 52. The control circuit is also designed to displace the rolling rolls radially towards the outside of the pipe in each rolling station 43n when the distance d assumes a predetermined value d0.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for rolling a seamless tube. The plant comprises a main rolling mill with adjustable rolls for mandrel-rolling a semi-finished tube. The plant also comprises a fixed-roll extracting/reducing mill positioned downstream of the main rolling mill. The extracting/reducing mill is designed to extract the semi-finished tube from the mandrel and reduce its diameter to a predetermined value close to that desired for the finished tube. Finally, the plant comprises a adjustable-roll sizing mill. The sizing mill is positioned downstream of the extracting/reducing mill. This sizing mill is designed to adjust the radial position of the rolls and define the diameter of the outgoing tube.
