  • Patent number: 11712724
    Abstract: A method for detecting a faulty cooling unit in a set of cooling units configured to provide a coolant to work rolls arranged to process a work item therebetween, the method including: varying the flow rates of the coolant ejected from a sub-set of the cooling units; in response to varying the flow rates, determining a flatness variation value of the work item for at least each of the cooling units in the sub-set of cooling units, the flatness variation value being indicative of the work item flatness variation downstream of the work rolls; and detecting a faulty cooling unit based on comparing the flatness variation values to a reference flatness variation value.

  • Publication number: 20230118015
    Abstract: A method of controlling flatness of a strip of rolled material in a production line including a hot rolling mill and at least one cold rolling mill, downstream of the hot rolling mill, the method including determining flatness data of the strip in one or more of the at least one cold rolling mill and/or following passing of the strip through one or more of the at least one cold rolling mill; determining a thickness profile target of the strip for the hot rolling mill based on the flatness data; and passing the strip through the hot rolling mill and adjusting the thickness of the strip based on the thickness profile target. A control system and a production line are also provided.

  • Patent number: 11236646
    Abstract: A valve drive device for actuating valves of an internal combustion engine a rocker arm device and a switchover device that includes at least two actuators for the at least one rocker arm device. The two actuators respectively include a switching element adjustable between a first position and a second position; a resetting device for resetting the switching element with a resetting force into the second position; a holding coil for offsetting the resetting force of the resetting device; a switching coil that counteracts the resetting force during operation. The switching coil and the holding coil adjust the switching element into the first position.
